The effects of climate change \u2013 such as increasing drought and extremer temperatures \u2013 cause wildfires to occur more often <em>and<\/em> to become more intense. Is it any use to plant trees then? Yes, indeed! For although it sounds contradictory, trees are capable of reducing the risk of wildfire. How is that?<\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-g2p-wrapper\"><div class=\"container\"><div class=\"row justify-content-center\"><div class=\"col-12 col-md-10 col-lg-8\">\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">More forest = less drought<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Forests themselves cannot prevent wildfire. But well-managed forests <em>do<\/em> reduce both the risk of wildfire and its seriousness. This is caused by the fact that \u2013 in various ways &#8211; trees contribute to a cooler, stabler and more stable climate:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Constant temperature. <\/strong>In a forest, temperatures are stabler than in places without trees. Humidity is higher, too.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Shade and cooling. <\/strong>Owing to their leaves, trees produce shade and cooling. The canopy protects the soil from the sun, so it does not dry out so quickly.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Absorptive capacity. <\/strong>Fallen leaves,the forest floor and vegetation all retain water. Indispensable during (lengthy) dry periods!<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Better protection.<\/strong> Trees reduce the power of the wind, sun and rain. This gives less ardent differences in temperature. Air remains more humid, too.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>In short, planting trees is useful in combatting heat and drought, thus also reducing the risk of wildfire. Provided the right tree grows in the right place and is cared for in the correct way.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-g2p-wrapper\"><div class=\"container\"><div class=\"row justify-content-center\"><div class=\"col-12 col-md-10 col-lg-8\"><div class=\"wp-block-image is-style-default\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-large is-resized\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"676\" src=\"https:\/\/treesforall.wptest.go2people.nl\/app\/uploads\/2025\/07\/Bosbrand-2-1024x676.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-69632\" style=\"width:1024px;height:auto\" srcset=\"https:\/\/treesforall.wptest.go2people.nl\/app\/uploads\/2025\/07\/Bosbrand-2-1024x676.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/treesforall.wptest.go2people.nl\/app\/uploads\/2025\/07\/Bosbrand-2-300x198.jpg 300w, https:\/\/treesforall.wptest.go2people.nl\/app\/uploads\/2025\/07\/Bosbrand-2-768x507.jpg 768w, https:\/\/treesforall.wptest.go2people.nl\/app\/uploads\/2025\/07\/Bosbrand-2-1536x1014.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/treesforall.wptest.go2people.nl\/app\/uploads\/2025\/07\/Bosbrand-2-scaled.jpg 1600w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\"><em><em>As a result of climate change, (extreme) drought, heat and, therefore, wildfire will increase.<\/em><\/em><\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-g2p-wrapper\"><div class=\"container\"><div class=\"row justify-content-center\"><div class=\"col-12 col-md-10 col-lg-8\">\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">The strength of a varied deciduous forest<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Some species of trees are more fire sensitive than others, since one species retains more moisture than another. Deciduous trees, such as oak or beech, hold relatively much water by means of their leaves and roots. That is the reason they do not catch fire so easily as conifers, such as fir and spruce. Dead needles easily drop and heap up on the forest floor. A tiny spark is enough to light a fire that spreads very fast.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>What works as well is planting forests with <strong>a mix of species of trees and shrubs<\/strong>. Such a mixed forests is far more drought resistant than one which consists of a single species of tree (monoculture). Does one species succumb to drought? In a mixed forest, there are plenty of other trees to preserve the forest.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Planting the right tree in the right place, therefore, is an important starting point in our line of work. Per project we consider carefully what species naturally occur in the area and which are future proof, for instance because they are drought resistant.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-g2p-wrapper\"><div class=\"container\"><div class=\"row justify-content-center\"><div class=\"col-12 col-md-10 col-lg-8\"><div class=\"wp-block-image is-style-default\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" src=\"https:\/\/treesforall.wptest.go2people.nl\/app\/uploads\/2025\/07\/loofbos-1024x683.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-69636\" srcset=\"https:\/\/treesforall.wptest.go2people.nl\/app\/uploads\/2025\/07\/loofbos-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/treesforall.wptest.go2people.nl\/app\/uploads\/2025\/07\/loofbos-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/treesforall.wptest.go2people.nl\/app\/uploads\/2025\/07\/loofbos-768x513.jpg 768w, https:\/\/treesforall.wptest.go2people.nl\/app\/uploads\/2025\/07\/loofbos.jpg 1254w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\"><em><em>A forest with various species of deciduous trees is less flammable than a forest of conifers.<\/em><\/em><\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-g2p-wrapper\"><div class=\"container\"><div class=\"row justify-content-center\"><div class=\"col-12 col-md-10 col-lg-8\">\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Forest management and fire prevention<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Besides planting the right trees, we pay much attention to management, maintenance and protection of trees. Fire prevention is an important element here. We do this together with our partners, both at home and abroad, which are familiar with a project location and its risks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The measures we take vary per project, but some examples are:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Voorlichting en bewustwording.&nbsp;<\/strong>Bosbranden ontstaan vaak (onbewust) door menselijk gedrag. Bewustwording om het risico op (overslaande) bosbranden te beperken, is daarom een belangrijk onderdeel binnen onze projecten. We werken hieraan samen met onze internationale partners, overheidsinstanties en de lokale gemeenschappen in projectgebieden.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Policies.<\/strong> Besides education and awareness, we also draw up policies to reduce risks. In our project areas in <a href=\"https:\/\/treesforall.wptest.go2people.nl\/en\/projecten\/spain\/\">Spain<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/treesforall.wptest.go2people.nl\/en\/projecten\/ethiopia\/\">Ethiopia<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/treesforall.wptest.go2people.nl\/en\/projecten\/sulawesi\/\">Indonesia<\/a>, we have drawn up safety protocols together with authorities. A zero buring policy also sometimes applies, for instance in periods of prolonged drought or with a high forest fire risk. In such cases, the use of fire for land preparation, for example, is prohibited.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Maintenance. <\/strong>We make sure there is good maintenance in planting locations, to keep any fire from easily spreading. This involves pruning or removing flammable shrubs or other vegetation.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Creating fire lanes.<\/strong> In strategic places in a new forest, we create fire lanes: strips without trees or growth. These \u2018stop lines\u2019 halt fire and prevent it from spreading in the forest.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Patrol teams.<\/strong> In some project locations, patrol teams have been installed, which check the forest for (arising) fires and are equipped with such materials as to be able to extinguish a fire rapidly.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Water management<\/strong>. In places such as <a href=\"https:\/\/treesforall.wptest.go2people.nl\/en\/projecten\/borneo\/\">Borneo<\/a>, our project partner builds dams in order to retain water within the area as much as possible. Moist soil is necessary for the type of forest we plant here, but just as much to prevent wildfire.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-g2p-wrapper\"><div class=\"container\"><div class=\"row justify-content-center\"><div class=\"col-12 col-md-10 col-lg-8\"><div class=\"wp-block-image is-style-default\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" src=\"https:\/\/treesforall.wptest.go2people.nl\/app\/uploads\/2025\/07\/20250221_018-1024x683.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-69639\" srcset=\"https:\/\/treesforall.wptest.go2people.nl\/app\/uploads\/2025\/07\/20250221_018-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/treesforall.wptest.go2people.nl\/app\/uploads\/2025\/07\/20250221_018-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/treesforall.wptest.go2people.nl\/app\/uploads\/2025\/07\/20250221_018-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/treesforall.wptest.go2people.nl\/app\/uploads\/2025\/07\/20250221_018-1536x1025.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/treesforall.wptest.go2people.nl\/app\/uploads\/2025\/07\/20250221_018-2048x1366.jpg 2048w, https:\/\/treesforall.wptest.go2people.nl\/app\/uploads\/2025\/07\/20250221_018-scaled.jpg 1600w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\"><em><em>Management in our planting locations is an important element in fire prevention, such as pruning or removing flammable shrubs or other vegetation.<\/em><\/em><\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-g2p-wrapper\"><div class=\"container\"><div class=\"row justify-content-center\"><div class=\"col-12 col-md-10 col-lg-8\">\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">The right tree in the right place, with the right care<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>It is impossible \u2013 unfortunately &#8211; &nbsp;to prevent wildfire completely.
