Fujian's Forests Emerge as Vital Carbon Sinks, Boosting Climate Resilience
The article discusses how forests help remove carbon dioxide from the air, which is crucial for reducing greenhouse gases and slowing down global warming. It zooms in on Fujian Province, an area in China with lots of forests. These forests cover about 66.8% of the land there. The province has been ranked No. 1 in forest coverage in China for the past 40 years. The study looks at the benefits of forest carbon sinks and how Fujian is using its abundant forests to store carbon. Researchers measured how much carbon these forests can absorb. They found that Fujian's forests have a lot of potential for capturing carbon, which can help in the fight against climate change.
