THEME – Forest Biodiversity

2011 to 2020 is the UN ‘Decade on Biodiversity’. Based on this, Wild Wisdom focusses on Forest Biodiversity, that refers to all life forms found in forests, including trees, plants, animals, fungi and micro-organisms, and their interactive roles in nature. Forests release oxygen, store carbon, protect the surface soil and fresh water sources, attract rainfall as well as provide a home to at least two-thirds of all terrestrial species. Moreover, besides their cultural and leisure value, they are an integral part of human life, providing fresh air, food, water, fuel and shelter to a large section of the earth’s population. The conversion of forests to agricultural land, and for developmental projects, as well as climate change is destroying forest biodiversity at an alarming rate. Therefore there is an urgent need to highlight the value and create awareness about the importance of Forest Biodiversity.
