Since December 23, 2025, the France Nation Verte public forest renewal support program has been suspended due to the absence of a finance law. While over 80% of French forests affected by health crises remain unregenerated and the national carbon sink has been halved in ten years, private funding has become the only immediate solution to continue the urgent adaptation of our forests.

The latest note from the Economic Analysis Council (CAE) proposes an innovative method for integrating the true value of forest services into national accounts and attempting to steer public policy in a more appropriate direction. This approach aims to reveal the costs and benefits of action in favour of forests, so that their importance is no longer underestimated.
