SVT said that Sweden’s tallest tree is now dying and The Swedish forests are severely exposed to the spruce bark beetle, which has become a major problem in recent years.
If you want to see Sweden’s tallest tree, it’s high time to visit the Mölnbacka spruce before it is too late .
SVT reiterated , According to Fredrik Reuter, who runs the forest site skogsforum.se, that there are only a few weeks left before its color is gone forever.
It’s very boring. In the distance we see that it starts to turn brown, unfortunately, and then it is completely gone, he says to SVT.
The tree could have been 60 meters tall, hadn’t been attacked by the spruce bark beetle, an insect that has become a major problem in the forests of Värmland.
I think it will escalate and become more and more. We have not seen the end of this yet, says Fredrik Reuter to SVT.
