Protecting Forests
Forests are one of the world’s best defenses against climate change. Period. They are the largest carbon sinks on Earth, sequestering greenhouse gasses that would otherwise be dumped into the atmosphere, further warming the planet. With every acre of forest that is clear-cut for timber, cattle production, or fossil fuel expansion, we lose irreplaceable biodiversity—and accelerate global warming.
It’s time to deliver game-changing, globally significant climate policy. Where can we have the biggest impact?
With more and more of Earth’s population moving into urban centers every year—and with the fossil-fuel-dependent transportation industry growing much faster than previously predicted—these two areas offer incredible opportunities for climate advocacy, acting as levers that can maximize our impact as we work towards a robust clean energy economy.
