Save nature to fight against climate change



Problems that are arising due to global warming

1.Rising sea levels
2.Violent storms
3.Melting of glaciers
4.Droughts and floods

The world’s poorest people, and rural communities in particular, will be affected the most, especially
those living in vulnerable ecosystems, such as low-lying islands or arid areas.
However, there is an answer – using what nature has already provided to help guard against
these threats.

KEY ISSUES:

We must save forests to prevent climate change.
Forests can help to store carbon and lead to a reduction in greenhouse gases, helping to cool our planet.
They are also important for conserving species and providing livelihoods for natural resource dependent local communities.
Equity between the North and South. All developed countries should realize the damage that they have done
to the global environment through greenhouse gas emissions.
They must support developing countries to adapt to the impacts of climate change.
Healthy environments provide means for people to make a living , store carbon and
other greenhouse gases, and can reduce the impacts of climate change-related natural hazards,
such as increased flooding, higher temperatures and rising sea levels.
