"Today is International Day of Forests! Covering almost a third of the Earth’s
land, forests contain over 80% of all land animals, insects and plant species,
and are home for around 300 million people. Forests recycle the air we breathe,
purify water, regulate rainfall and store carbon, making them a key player in
the fight against climate change.
Worldwide, climate change is intensifying floods, droughts, heatwaves and fire,
leading to degraded forest landscapes that negatively impact the biodiversity
and communities that depend on them. But across our partnership, BirdLife
Partners are showing how locally led, Nature-based Solutions can reduce risk
and protect livelihoods, helping communities and ecosystems adapt.
The Forest Impact Accelerator was designed precisely for this purpose: to turn
promising ideas into investable, durable solutions that strengthen climate
resilience while conserving biodiversity and boosting local livelihoods."
