#COP28UAE didn’t just bring down the curtain on fossil fuels–it also enshrined a new era of equitable, global ambition on the protection of the world’s climate-critical forests. nrdc.org/bio/jennifer-s…

Together with 6 other NGOs, WWF-Canada is urging the Canadian government and industry to adopt an accurate definition of forest degradation and take immediate action to minimize it.

#Oldgrowth forests capture the imagination of Americans. These trees, which have grown for generations, are often so wide that you cannot get your arms around them. Today President Donald J.

More evidence that Ottawa is letting the logging industry pollute for free: new study shows logging emitted 91 Mt/year of CO2 between 2005 and 2021, in stark contrast to the 5 Mt/year carbon sink Canada reported to the UN. #cdnpoli cbc.ca/news/climate/c…
