We have more and more forests in the Basque Country: the pastures have given way to the trees

Lur Geroa usually draws up forest management plans for the municipalities of Navarre, where most of the mountains and forests are public, and where the municipalities of Navarre own about 80% of the forests. According to Navarre regulations, the Foral Government is responsible for financing forest management plans, but the municipalities have to approve them and many require citizen participation. 

The consultancy proposes, among other things, how these forests can be exploited in a sustainable manner, that is, how much wood can be extracted from each forest in 10 or 15 years, without the loss of volume of forests. In addition, municipalities are obliged to invest 20% of the money they receive from their exploitation (sale of timber or leasing of land) in the mountain. It also advises how to make these investments.

Starting a "success story" with the announcement of the establishment of the Hithium in Navarre

Maria Chivite, who, together with Spanish President Pedro Sánchez and the directors of the Chinese multinational, has formalized the announcement made yesterday in Madrid, has stressed that work is being done on the agreement "prudently", among other things, because the location of the plant remains to be decided. In any case, Hithium's choice of Navarre is a sign of Navarre's commitment to energy and job creation policies, as well as Hithium's desire to expand to Europe.
