🌳Innovation and technology have revolutionized forest monitoring, enabling countries to track and report on their forests more effectively. A total of 13.7 billion tons of carbon dioxide forest emission reductions or enhancements have been reported to the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change through transparent and innovative forest monitoring.
🌎 The theme for International Day of Forests 2024 is Forests and Innovation: New Solutions for a Better World.
🌿 The battle against deforestation requires new technological advancements. With 10 million hectares lost annually due to deforestation and approximately 70 million hectares affected by fires, these innovations are essential for early warning systems, sustainable commodity production, and empowering Indigenous Peoples through land mapping and climate finance access.
🌱Additionally, ecosystem restoration, including reforestation efforts, can significantly contribute to climate mitigation and enhance food security.
