Mozambique's Forests: Since the 1970s, Mozambique has witnessed the loss of 8 million hectares of forests, an area equivalent to the size of Portugal. This rapid deforestation, equivalent to losing 1000 football fields every day, poses significant threats to the country's biodiversity, which includes 20 endangered bird species and over 200 native mammal species. Furthermore, with more than 45% of the population living below the poverty line, who are heavily reliant on local biodiversity for survival, this loss of natural resources exacerbates their challenges.

What is the solution? Our subscribers, in collaboration with Eden Reforestation Projects, are actively working towards reforestation efforts across multiple inland and coastal mangrove locations in the southern region of the country. These initiatives not only help in restoring habitats for endangered wildlife, but they also create job opportunities for locals, thereby serving a dual purpose.
