Émilie Méchenin and Juline Garnier are the winners of the Special Prize "Forest and Wood", category 19-25 years, journalism. This prize was awarded to them for their report: "The Aleppo pine, towards a revaluation of a Provencal symbol".
"The Aleppo pine is an emblematic tree of southern France. We see it everywhere but it has a bad reputation. Not very interesting economically because it is mainly transformed into paper pulp, it is therefore poorly maintained and it spreads on the territory. Problem: its needles are highly flammable and favour devastating summer fires. To remedy this problem, professionals in the sector have fought to give it a better commercial value. Today, they continue to mobilize to create an industry for this particular wood.
