Protecting Naturally Regrowing Forests Is a Crucial — and Overlooked — Climate Solution

Global Forest Watch is now Global Nature Watch, reflecting the next evolution of our work to expand data and coverage beyond forests.

The latest data shows that forest fires are getting worse, burning more than twice as much tree cover today as they did 20 years ago.

The world’s remaining intact forest landscapes are shrinking. Human-caused fires, logging, and mining, drilling and exploration are the leading causes.
