About Forest Wallpapers

While forests are gradually decreasing, the place and importance of forests in the world plan are increasing. Sensitivity regarding forests comes to the fore in daily life, media organs, and social media. So, how much do we know about the world's forests? It is possible to get detailed information on this subject from the relevant section on our institution's website. Below are ten primary data on the services provided by the world's forests. Let's briefly summarize them.

Forests are a source of foods rich in protein, such as berries, fruits, seeds, and insects, and minerals such as calcium and iron. These natural products help forest communities and keep millions of people healthy. Forests are natural aqueducts that reuse 95% of the water they absorb, where it is most needed. They retain moisture in the soil, prevent erosion, and release that water into the atmosphere, cooling the air. Trees are significant carbon sinks. Forests absorb 2.1 gigatons (2.1 billion tons) of carbon dioxide annually. This plays a fundamental stabilizer role in the world's carbon cycle and helps combat climate change.

Almost 900 million people, mostly in developing countries, are engaged in the production of firewood and charcoal. 2.4 billion people, one-third of the world's population, use firewood for cooking. For this reason, wood energy is one of the essential supports of food security and nutrition. Firewood accounts for 40% of the global renewable energy supply, equivalent to solar, hydroelectric, and wind energy combined. At the same time, the demand for bioenergy is increasing.

Every year, 3.3 million hectares of forest area is lost worldwide. This area is equivalent to Moldova in size. However, 20 developing countries have made progress in food security while protecting and increasing their forest assets. This shows that to reduce hunger, it is not necessary to cut trees to obtain agricultural land. The opposite is true. We must manage forests sustainably to stay healthy, provide various products and services, and even support agriculture, livestock, and fishery production.

Sustainably managed forests are renewable and the primary raw material for paper, one of the most recycled materials in the world. 55% of all fibers used for paper production, 225 million tons of fiber, are obtained from the recycled paper today. The rubber tree (Hevea brasiliensis) in the Amazon rainforest is a significant source of natural rubber. It is possible to produce latex without damaging the trees by cutting, which is called pouring, and carefully applied to the bark of the trees. Every year, 21 March is celebrated worldwide as International Forest Day. The theme of the 2017 celebration was "Forests and Energy." The theme of the 2018 celebrations will be "Forests and Sustainable Cities."
