Understand how and why climate change is occurring, its role in the dramatic increase in forest fires, and how it threatens not only the survival of forests but also the existence of every species on earth. Explore what can be done to slow climate change, what young climate activists like Greta Thunberg are doing, and how you can make a real difference to save our world for future generations.
