In a long interview for Radio Slovenia an author spoke about current issues of management and restoration of Slovenian forests. Among other things, the interviewee talked about the opportunities offered by non-native tree species in forest restoration after the 2014 ice break, after the subsequent beetle infestation, and in adapting to climate change. Among the non-native tree species with good potential, the Douglas fir was particularly prominent.
