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 known animal and plant species outside the oceans are found in forests. At the same time, forests are the livelihood of one in five people.
However, more than 7.6 million hectares of forest are lost every year - a large part of this in the tropics and subtropics to expand agricultural land. The loss of forest areas means the loss of an important carbon store, 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, reforestation 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 large number of agreements on the protection, sustainable use and restoration of forests. These include the "New York Declaration on Forests" (NYDC), adopted in 2014, which aims to completely stop deforestation. In addition, it inten
