WHY FORESTS MATTER Our forests are at the center of the most important environmental challenges
we face today and are a critical source of natural resources.

WATER We all rely on forests for clean water. American Forests' restoration projects benefit major watersheds and protect our valuable water resources by restoring and augmenting riparian buffers.

CLIMATE Forests and trees slow climate change by storing carbon, but climate change also makes forests more vulnerable. American Forests works to restore forests to be more resilient and better withstand climate change.

WILDLIFE When forests are destroyed, wildlife is threatened. Most of American Forests' restoration projects involve a wildlife habitat component, including restoration efforts for threatened and endangered species.

RECREATION Activities such as hiking, camping, and fishing give us a deeper appreciation for the natural world and make us healthier and less stressed. That’s why American Forests promotes sustainable recreation in forests.
