Key Points:

Stopping deforestation and sustaining forests, repairing degraded lands and increasing agroforestry, and managing forests responsibly and establishing green value chains are the three interconnected pathways.
Balanced, concurrent pursuit of these paths can provide countries and their rural populations with long-term economic and social benefits, as well as assist in fulfilling growing global demand for materials and managing environmental issues.
The State of the World’s Forests 2022 includes evidence on the paths’ feasibility and value, as well as the first steps that may be made to pursue them further.
There is no time to waste; immediate action is required to keep global warming below 1.5 degrees Celsius, reduce the risk of future pandemics, ensure food security and nutrition for all, eradicate poverty, conserve the planet’s biodiversity, and give young people hope for a better world and a better future.
