Fires Fuel Record Tropical Forest Loss Worldwide

Imagine the world's rainforests, which are very important for our planet, are being destroyed at an alarming rate.

Last year, a record amount of forest, an area twice the size of Belgium, was lost mostly because of fires.

These fires were made worse by climate change and were often started to clear land for farming.

The burning forests release tons of pollution into the air, making the climate even hotter.

While some places are improving, others are getting worse, highlighting the urgency of protecting these vital ecosystems.
