"Megaforests" — stunningly large, intact forests — are vital to a sustainable future. By saving these green expanses we keep carbon in the ground and protect the planet, as well as the indigenous peoples and cultures megaforests sustain.
Learn about the five megaforests remaining on Earth — the Taiga, the North American forest, the Amazon, the Congo, and the island of New Guinea — and how we can save them in a thrilling virtual program on Tuesday, 9/27 at 7 p.m.
