 | #TECHNOTIPS: Forests |
 Forests are home to 80% of the world's terrestial biodiversity. They take many forms depending on the latitude, temperature, and rainfall. Forests also serve as home to many organisms including plants, animals, and microorgnanisms.Forests also play a critical role in mitigating climate change. They serve as carbon sinks, absorbing carbon dioxide and other greenhouse gases which contribute to the global change in climate.
