When forests thrive, so do we.

From birdsongs to the calls of frogs, the cries of monkeys to the buzzing of billions of insects, the sounds of tropical forests make up a rich symphony.

In addition to providing homes to more than half of all species found on land, forests help keep our climate stable, absorbing carbon dioxide and releasing oxygen, they regulate our water supply and improve its quality.

Find out why we must protect these green giants, which are vanishing at a rapid rate.
