The latest episode of Stora Enso's podcast discusses the threats to biodiversity in our Nordic forests. Guest in the episode is Joakim Hjältén, professor at SLU, Department of Wildlife, Fish and Environmental Studies.

– Our intensive use of the forest is changing the forest ecosystem, says Joakim Hjältén in the pod. In the Nordic countries, therefore, it is important to preserve important functions in our forests and  forest biodiversity.
