Discover insights about the power of conserving tropical forests and
the scientific studies behind it. 
  



Conserving tropical forests has an outsized impact on:

 Climate Change

Forests are natural climate regulators by sequestering carbon and maintaining water cycles, preventing droughts and fires.

 Biodiversity 


Home to 43% of Life on Land, tropical forests represent irreplaceable biodiversity.

 Cost-effectiveness


Conserving forests is 7-10 times more cost-effective than reforestation. Tree planting is resource-intensive and cannot replace unique ecosystems.
