There is almost no real forest left in Germany anyways. We just recently started to leave forest be forest again and it will take centuries or millennia for it to become a natural forest again. Which then would probably be much more resilient to climate change than what we have today.

There are still a couple of really old forests but yeah it's increasingly rare
You mean the orderly grids of pines and spruces, all of the exact same height in almost ethnically cleansed monoculture are not natural forests?
I'm shocked!
Those are actually not the norm either. Well, depending on where exactly you are I suppose, but where I am from most forests are kinda diverse but not really.
“Threatens,” “warns,” “estimates,” “probably.” Enough fence sitting. Climate change is here and going to get worse.
