The balsam fir accounts for about 20 per cent of all trees in New Brunswick .
With its fragrant needles and triangular shape, the tree is most commonly associated with Christmas .
The University of New Brunswick forestry professor Anthony Taylor was shocked by “that much” death.
Taylor and his co-authors identify the cause of the die-off in western New Brunswick and eastern Maine as drought.
“The balsam fir Christmas trees that we all love, you know, unless we do something about climate change, we’re going to have a lot less of them in 25 to 50 years ,” Taylor said. “If we continue down this path that we’re on now, by the end of the century , there will be very few balsam fir trees left.” This report by The Canadian Press was first published Dec. 8, 2024 .
