This article explains the new rules for the Low Carbon Label set out in the decree of 5 September 2025 and outlines how companies must report and communicate on their carbon credits depending on the intended use — contribution, voluntary offsetting or mandatory offsetting.
In the face of declining public funding for climate adaptation, particularly in the forestry and timber sector, the article shows how the state’s withdrawal makes it essential to mobilise private funding in order to preserve France’s forests and strengthen their resilience.
Since the abrupt suspension of France Nation Verte in late 2025, this article shows how, in the face of forests in crisis and the collapse of the carbon sink, Atmosylva is relying on private funding (the Low-Carbon Label and adaptive sponsorship) to continue the urgent adaptation of France’s mountain ranges
This article describes how the latest report from the Economic Analysis Council proposes to incorporate the true value of forest services – particularly carbon and co-benefits – into national accounts, in order to better guide public policy and promote adaptive forestry projects such as those led by Atmosylva
"La Météo des Forêts" is a tool developed by Météo-France that provides daily updates on fire risk based on weather conditions and vegetation dryness. It aims to raise public awareness and promote good habits to prevent fires, especially during the summer months.
The climate report for June 2025 and summer forecasts predict exceptionally hot and dry conditions, significantly increasing the risks for French forests already weakened by climate change.
According to data from Météo France, 2020 is the hottest year la plus chaude registered since 1900. The average temperature of the year reached 14°C, while the normal average for metropolitan France is about 12,6°C (climatic normals over the period 1981-2010)
Trees "drink" water from the ground, and evacuate a large part of this water by evaporation and the transpiration of their foliage.
We have previously seen the influence of trees on climatic factors at forest scale.
