Sustainable forests are our pathway to slowing climate change and promote social equity
Forest Regrowth and Carbon Capture
New and existing threats are changing India’s forests rapidly.
Massive is building forests but not planting trees
Our forests face unprecedented threats
India has witnessed urbanization, a booming economy, and huge population growth. This unsustainable growth has led to huge deforestation. Most cities in India are witnessing reducing forests and increasing stray animal populations. MEF is committed to establishing sustainable forests to support flora and fauna and reducing disastrous impacts of deforestation.
“The stewardship and use of forests and forest lands in a way, and at a rate, that maintains their biodiversity, productivity, regeneration capacity, vitality and their potential to fulfil, now and in the future, relevant ecological, economic and social functions, at local, national, and global levels, and that does not cause damage to other ecosystems.”
– Food & Agriculture Organization of the United Nations
Voluntary carbon trading is about to go mainstream, and we believe it can have a key role in safeguarding the future of our planet. We are working in the intersection between public and private for sustainability and we recognize effective ways to drive change towards sustainability is through incentives and offering win-win alternatives.
Restoring forests to stop climate change
Sustainable forest management creates outcomes that are socially just, ecologically sound and economically viable – the three pillars of sustainability.
We cannot separate, compartmentalize or address individually these pillars. If one pillar is missing, we cannot protect our forests, forest-dependent communities and rural economies cannot thrive, illegal logging will not be abated and development opportunities will not be captured.
