Today is #WorldRainforestDay!🌳 Rainforests are vital to global climate, biodiversity, human health, daily life, and so much more. Our future depends on standing forests and their guardians. You may already know that half of the world’s biodiversity can be found in rainforests and that they absorb and store up to 30% of global carbon emissions. But did you know that only 36% of our planet’s original rainforests remain intact? 🐸 From rainforests to oceans and glaciers, scientists agree that safeguarding the #GlobalCommons is critical to ensuring a #SafeAndJust future. That is why we exist. 👉 Learn more about our work to safeguard the global commons: https://lnkd.in/d5cBZEs This World Rainforest Day also marks the start of the Year of Action #forRainforests.

When we think of biodiversity, we often think of animals or plants. But what we don’t often think of is soil. Soil is a loving resource that is home to 25% of our planet’s biodiversity. Soils are being destroyed by non-organic farm growing systems. To protect biodiversity we must also protect #soilhealth 🚜 If you would like to learn more about soil health and its importance for combatting climate change and upholding our food system then watch the documentary This Good Earth. This Good Earth is a 90 minute documentary by Robert Golden that asks "what have we done: to the soil? to the land? to the climate? and to other species?

Degradation and deforestation of Ancient and Endangered Forests continues at an alarming rate all around the world. Billions of trees are logged annually to make boxes and textiles, and many of them come from ecosystems thousands or even millions of years in the making — putting species, communities, and the climate at risk. Canopy works with its brand partners and local allies to protect irreplaceable forest ecosystems to ensure that the rich biodiversity of life is protected, our climate stabilized, traditional and Indigenous communities thrive, and to ensure humanity can live vibrantly within the limits of our planet.

“On World Forest Day, let’s take a moment to recognize the invaluable contribution of forests to our planet’s well-being. Each tree, every leaf, plays a crucial role in maintaining Earth’s biodiversity, purifying the air we breathe, and regulating our climate. Today is a reminder of the precious gift of nature that forests represent, and an opportunity to raise awareness about their critical importance. Let’s commit to protecting and preserving these vital ecosystems, ensuring they flourish for generations to come. Every tree is significant, and every forest is essential.

Trees play a vital role in the fight against climate change and biodiversity loss. Today, we announced over $60 million to plant over 35 million trees to restore forests and reserve lands that have been damaged by wildfires. The four projects announced today will help to restore boreal forest lands, which will improve forest health and biodiversity and benefit Canadians across the country.
