For World Wildlife Day on 3 March, United Nations Secretary-General António Guterres is calling “on governments, businesses and people everywhere to scale up efforts to conserve forests and forest species, and to support, and listen to the voices of forest communities”.
The world’s forests, which play a vital role as both the lungs of the planet and as home to 80 per cent of all terrestrial wildlife species, are under threat. Some 90 per cent of the world’s poorest people are dependent in some way on forest resources.
