We must move faster to restore and protect forests

The world’s rapid response to the COVID-19 pandemic has shown that human societies can fight to external threats and pressures if the urgency is real. The recently launched United Nations Decade on Ecosystem Restoration offers a great opportunity to communities, companies and governments to join efforts, protect and restore forests, transform food systems, and develop sustainable finance models to keep the planet habitable. “Even if we stopped deforesting  we would not have enough forests to be our allies  against climate change and nature loss. We desperately need to accelerate restoration.” Fran Price, Forest Practice Leader, WWF. You can learn more with the Global Landscapes Forum.
