Reconnaître la forêt comme un atout naturel stratégique de la Nation

This is a French bill (proposition de loi ordinaire) tabled in the National Assembly during the 17th legislature (2022–2024). Its title proposes formally recognising forests as a strategic natural asset of the nation. Based on the title alone, the aim is to give forests greater weight in national policy, plausibly including their roles in climate, biodiversity, timber supply and resilience. The metadata does not describe the specific measures proposed. The bill would most directly concern forest owners, public and private, foresters, the timber and wood-processing sectors, and local communities that depend on forests. The concrete changes depend on the bill's operative provisions, which are not included in this metadata.
