Forests are essential for life. They absorb carbon, safeguard biodiversity, and sustain communities worldwide. Yet every year, millions of hectares are lost to deforestation, driving climate change and threatening vulnerable populations.
The UK has a key role to play. As a major importer, it can help curb deforestation through strong supply chain laws. As a global leader, it can increase funding to protect rainforests and support Indigenous and local communities. And at home, it can scale up nature-based solutions to restore ecosystems and strengthen climate resilience.
Your voice matters. By sharing why forests are important to you, you’ll help show UK leaders that citizens everywhere are calling for action to protect forests and nature — for our planet, our future, and generations to come.
