People
Depend
On
Forests

Deforestation
can
disrupt
the
lives
of
local
communities,
sometimes
with
devastating
consequences.
Forests
provide
a
vast
array
of
resources
to
all
of
us,
including
food,
wood,
medicine,
fresh
water,
and
the
air
we
breathe.
Without
the
trees,
the
ecosystem
that
supports
the
human
population
can
fall
apart.

Carbon
Sink

Forest
trees
and
other
plants
soak
up
carbon
dioxide
from
the
atmosphere
and
store
it
away
as
they
grow
and
thrive.
Forests
contain
more
than
660
gigatons
of
carbon,
18
times
the
amount
emitted
each
year
by
human
activities.

Unique
Biodiversity

Forests
are
home
to
most
of
the
world's
life
on
land,
and
tropical
rainforests
are
home
to
more
species
than
any
other
terrestrial
habitat.
A
single
acre
of
rain
forest
may
be
home
to
thousands
of
species.

Adopt
a
Panda

Despite
their
exalted
status
and
relative
lack
of
natural
predators,
pandas
are
still
at
risk.
Severe
threats
from
humans
have
left
just
over
1,800
pandas
in
the
wild.

Camera
traps
showcase
Malaysia’s
incredible
biodiversity

As
the
sun
begins
to
dip
below
the
horizon
of
Malaysia’s
Royal
Belum
State
Park,
the
team
makes
the
final
adjustments
to
the
last
of
eight
digital
camera
traps.
Everyone
is
in
good
spirits
and
the
leeches
have
taken
a
day
off
as
the
ground
is
dry
underfoot.
