Agreement on the Conservation of Boreal Forests

The Agreement on the Conservation of Boreal Forests is an international effort to protect the vast, fragile forests in the northern regions of North America, Europe, and Russia. These forests are crucial for maintaining global climate balance, supporting diverse wildlife, and providing resources like clean air and water. The agreement encourages countries to work together to conserve biodiversity, promote sustainable management, and prevent deforestation. It emphasizes responsible use of forest resources, addresses threats like logging and climate change, and aims to ensure that these vital ecosystems remain healthy for future generations.
