We need to reduce land-clearing for housing and agriculture,then allow trees to regrow where they have been removed,and protect and better care for the few temperate forests that still contain stands of very old trees.These old forests are some of the most carbon-dense ecosystems and possess unique biodiversity.Therefore,govemments and landowners must make sure middle-aged forests that regrew after cutting will develop into the old-growth forests of tomorrow.
