We are in the middle of a climate crisis, threatening life on our planet. Forests act as both a cause and a solution for greenhouse gas emissions.

​

Many of the world’s forests are threatened by illegal logging and other harmful practices, with more than 12 million hectares of forest lost each year. Converting land for agriculture remains one of the biggest drivers of deforestation. When forests are destroyed and degraded they release carbon dioxide, approximately 13 per cent of annual carbon emissions are a result of deforestation. But forests can also be a climate solution.

​

Healthy, resilient forests are one of the most effective ways to combat climate change. They help to regulate the earth’s climate by absorbing carbon dioxide and storing it as carbon in the living wood, roots, leaves, within the soils and their associated vegetation. Forests also provide us with many other ecosystem services (the benefits humans derive from nature), helping to purify air and water, and to regulate water flow, helping us to adapt to the impacts of climate change, all whilst providing food and livelihoods to millions of people.

​
