Almost a third of our planet is covered in forests but every year we lose 10 million hectares. Forests not only play a critical role in mitigating climate change, they also purify water and provide jobs for millions of people.
In this episode of Age of Change, meet Apolonia and José Jacinto, coffee-growers who are addressing local deforestation in Oaxaca, Mexico, and are exploring ways of protecting their surroundings through community-based alliances and regenerative agriculture.
--- About the series ---
Humans have a remarkable capacity for imagination and invention, enabling us to think beyond the present and unravel the most complex problems. But, in the face of a planetary crisis, we can only achieve meaningful change if we work collaboratively and act globally.
This Age of Change series showcases some of the organisations and innovators who are driving that change. Join us as we explore aspirational solutions for change, sharing stories that serve as a blueprint for our future – one where we can exist in harmony with nature.
