🇿🇼this is horrendous. Let's stop this. Cities will be jam-packed with people fleeing the countryside once this critical resource is finished.

Zimbabwe loses over 260,000 hectares of forest every year. Behind every hectare lost are disappearing wildlife habitats, degraded land, and growing climate challenges!
Deforestation driven by firewood collection, agricultural expansion, unregulated artisanal mining, and wood harvesting for tobacco curing is threatening our future.
Trees are life. They provide clean air, protect our water sources, conserve biodiversity, and sustain livelihoods. Protecting our forests is everyone’s responsibility.
Protect our forests. Protect our future.
