Did you know? 🌲🔥 Even in Earth's northern boreal forests, climate change is predicted to make wildfires more frequent and severe. The boreal forest, stretching from North America to Siberia, has absorbed 1 trillion tonnes of carbon over millennia, playing a vital role as one of the planet’s largest CO₂ sinks. Protecting this essential ecosystem is crucial in the fight against climate change. #ClimateAction #WildfirePrevention #BorealForest #Waterax #FireSafety
