Forests

From the highest treetops to the deepest root, discover the incredible world of forests. Learn how trees help our planet, explore vast rainforests and woodlands and uncover the animals, people and plants that call forests home.

Forests cover nearly a third of Earth, providing the oxygen we breathe, supporting thousands of species and helping to combat climate change.
