| Description (Original language) | EVROPSKA NEDJELJA ŠUMA 20 – 24. oktobar 2008. Evropska nedjelja šuma 2008. naglašava doprinos evropskih šuma pri ublažavanju klimatskih promjena, drvnim resursom i obnovljivom energijom, osiguravanju zaliha pitke vode i zaštiti naše životne sredine. Svjetski dan šuma je prvi dan proljeća, međutim na 5. Ministarskoj konferenciji o zaštiti šuma u Europi „Šume za kvalitetu života“ koja se održala od 5. do 7. studenog 2007. godine u Varšavi, ministri odgovorni za šume iz 46 evropskih zemalja proglasili su nedjelju od 20. do 24. oktobra 2008. godine Evropskom nedjeljom šuma, te su ga zajednički organizovali Evropska komisija, Organizacija Ujedinjenih nacija za poljoprivredu i hranu (FAO), Ministarska konferencija o zaštiti šuma u Europi (MCPFE) i Evropska ekonomska komisija Ujedinjenih nacija (UNECE) u bliskoj saradnji sa Predsjedništvom Vijeća Evropske Unije - Francuskom. Evropski nedjelja šuma bit će okosnica nizu manifestacija u Evropi. Na regionalnoj razini, nedjelja će biti obilježena u Rimu i Bruxellesu, a niz događaja na nacionalnoj i lokalnoj razini održat će se u zemljama širom Evrope. U Rimu će se održati niz sastanaka na kojima će učestvovati gore navedene organizacije i ostali evropski partneri iz šumarskog sektora. Događanja u Rimu okupiti će stotine pojedinaca predstavnika vladinih institucija, nevladinih organizacija, istraživačkih instituta, regionalnih i međunarodnih mreža, agencija UN-a i privatnog sektora. Prisustvovati će i predstavnici srednjeg i višeg managementa šumarskog i drugih srodnih sektora iz svih dijelova Evrope. Ovi sastanci će pružiti jedinstvenu priliku da različiti učesnici i šumarski stručnjaci razmijene svoja gledišta i potraže rješenja za neke od najvećih izazova s kojima se danas suočavaju šume i šumarstvo, a to su klimatske promjene, energija i voda. Vezano na događanja u Rimu, u Brusselesu će se 20. oktobra 2008. g. održati sastanci na visokom nivou. Ciljevi Ciljevi Evropska nedjelja šuma su: - naglasiti značaj šuma i šumarskog sektora i njihovog doprinosa razvoju evropskog gospodarstva i društva - podići javnu svijest o važnom doprinosu šuma pri ublažavanju klimatskih promjena, snabdijevanje pitkom vodom i zaštiti životne sredine - uključiti druge sektore u zajednički dijalog o pitanjima vezanima za šume Glavne poruke Evropske šume obogaćuju naše živote i pomažu spašavanju planete. • šume pokrivaju 44% evropskog kopna i nastavljaju se širiti • šume se bore protiv klimatskih promjena kontinuiranim upijanjem i skladištenjem opasnih stakleničkih gasova • u današnjoj promijenjenoj klimi, drvo, naš najstariji obnovljivi izvor materijala i energije, još uvijek je pametan izbor, čak i u 21. vijeku • Evropska nedjelja šuma ima za cilj poboljšati razumijevanje važnosti naših šuma i vrijednosti njihovog korištenja Površina šuma u Evropi povećala se za 13 miliona hektara u zadnjih 15 godina. To je površina otprilike jednaka veličini Grčke – ili više od milion fudbalskih igrališta svake godine. Šume kojima se održivo upravlja obogaćuju naše živote i životnu sredinu na mnogo načina. One stabilizuju naša zemljišta, pružaju stanište našem biljnom i životinjskom svijetu, pročišćuju naš vazduh i vodu, vežu stakleničke gasove, stvaraju prihod i radna mjesta i pružaju nam zdrav prostor za odmor i igru. Održivo upravljanje šumama znači korištenje šumama bez da ih se umanjuje. Evropske šume istovremeno proizvode sve veće količine obnovljive i pouzdane sirovine za gradnju, namještaj, energiju, papir i nebrojene druge svakodnevne upotrebe. Drvna zaliha u Evropskim šumama raste za oko 360 milijona m3 godišnje, dok se trenutno siječe samo dvije trećine tog iznosa. Evropske šume se bore protiv klimatskih promjena Putem fotosinteze, drveće uklanja CO2 iz atmosfere. Ugljendioksid se skladišti u šumskoj biomasi - u trupcima, granama, lišću i korijenju, te u tlu. U šumi kojom se održivo upravlja skladištenje ugljendioksida nikada ne prestaje zbog kontinuirane obnove područja na kojima je izvršena sječa. Čak i nakon što se drvo posiječe, drvni proizvodi nastavljaju skladištiti ugljendioksid. Drvo je također izvor energije sa niskom emisijom ugljendioksida – bolje je za planetu nego korištenje fosilnih goriva. Drvo je pametan izbor Drvo je prirodan, obnovljiv resurs. Trebamo ga više koristiti za energiju i u zamjenu za druge, prema životnoj sredini štetnije materijale. Za proizvodnju drveta potrebno je manje energije i emitira se manje CO2 nego za proizvodnju bilo kojeg drugog široko korištenog građevinskog materijala – a drvo skladišti ugljendioksid toliko dugo koliko postoji građevina. Korištenje više drveta umjesto betona, plastike i čelika moglo bi postići značajan pad u emisijama stakleničkih gasova. Zamjenom 1 m3 betona sa istom zapreminom drveta može se uštedjeti oko 1 tona CO2 ispuštenog u atmosferu. To je otprilike količina CO2 koju ispusti prosječno putničko vozilo nakon što pređe 3 000 km. Nadalje, drvo i drvni proizvodi su jednostavni za ponovnu upotrebu i reciklažu. Sve evropske zemlje su pozvane da na nacionalnom nivou, a u skladu sa ciljevima "Nedelje šuma", organizuju skupove posvećene problematici šuma i šumarstva. Ovo mogu biti konferencije, forumi, javna dešavanja kao što su šumarski sajmovi, šetnje prirodom i izložbe, simbolična dešavanja kao što je sadnja drveća, medijska dešavanja usmjerena ka unapređenju komunikacije. "Nedelji šuma" posvećen je i WEB sajt (www.EuropeanForestWeek.org) na kome se mogu pronaći informacije o proslavi na nacionalnom i regionalnom nivou. Akcija jesenjeg pošumljavanja NVO “EKO-Leonardo” U našoj zemlji institucije nisu posvetile dovoljno pažnje ovakvim i sličnim nastojanjima savremenog svijeta. Udruženje građana “EKO-Leonardo” iz Priboja, u saradnji sa eko-sekcijama osnovnih i srednjih škola, počinje sa akcijom pošumljavanja krajem meseca oktobra. U ovoj kampanji očekuje se podrška i partnerskih organizacija. U cilju edukacije mladih i podizanja nivoa svijesti o značaju šuma, naši volonteri će održati predavanja u osnovnim i srednjim školama, podijeliti propagandni materijal („KLIMATSKE PROMJENE I ŠUME“) i plakate „Molitva šume“. Jesenja sadnja biljaka će se izvršiti sadnicama četinara : bijeli i crni bor, smrča, jela i sadnicama lišćara: hrasta, bagrema, lipe, javora i jasena. Za pošumljavanja u 2008. godini, JP “Šume Srpske“, Centar za sjemenarsko-rasadničku proizvodnju donirali su 35.000 komada sadnica u proljetnjoj kampanji 2008. U jesenjoj akciji pošumljavanja obezbedit će se još 10.000 komada sadnica, od čega 3.000 komada za sadnju na devastiranom državnom zemljištu i 7.000 komada na privatnim površinama.
