More than 100 world leaders meeting at COP26—the UN climate summit in Glasgow—have committed to halt and reverse deforestation by 2030. The countries that have signed the agreement contain 85% of the world's forests...This is only the most recent commitment to stop forest loss in a series of similar initiatives. Back in 2005, the UN Forum on Forests committed to "reverse the loss of forest cover worldwide" by 2015. In 2008, 67 countries pledged to try and reach zero net deforestation by 2020.
