PROJECT DESCRIPTION (DE)
Initial situation:
Around a third of the earth's surface is covered by forests. Their value is immeasurable: around 80 percent of the known animal and plant species outside the oceans are found in forests. At the same time, the forest is the basis of life for one in five people.
However, more than 7.6 million hectares of forest are lost every year - much of it in the tropics and subtropics for the expansion of agricultural land. With the loss of forest areas, an important carbon store is lost, and their destruction also releases greenhouse gases that are harmful to the climate.
Forest protection is an important measure in the fight against climate change: natural regeneration, afforestation and agroforestry measures that combine agriculture with trees can bind carbon in the long term. Erosion protection and improved water availability also make a significant contribution to adapting to climate change.
At the international level, there are a variety of agreements on the protection, sustainable use and restoration of forests. This includes the "New York Declaration on Forests" (NYDC), adopted in 2014, which aims to completely stop deforestation. In addition, it aims to restore forests and tree-rich landscapes on an area of ??350 million hectares by 2030 This ties in with the goals
