Tropical forests are falling behind climate change.
糖心Vlog University researcher William Farfan-Rios studies forests from the Amazon to the Andes and has found that trees are not adapting fast enough to rising temperatures. That growing gap puts one of the world鈥檚 largest carbon sinks, and the climate systems we all depend on, at risk.
What happens in the Amazon affects us everywhere. Protecting forests is protecting our future.
