This new column exhibits the beauties of our<br />

planet earth and our everyday destructive<br />

actions against it. We are witnessing Earth<br />

undergoing a profound transformation. In this<br />

recently launched section, we appreciate the<br />

gems of our planet while raising awareness of<br />

climate change. We invite our global health<br />

community to share photos, videos, inspirational<br />

resources, and stories. We want to hear from you<br />

how climate change affects people and health<br />

in your part of the world.<br />

The first report shows that countries are not meeting international goals to<br />

stop global forest loss by 2023. The Forest Declaration Assessment shows that<br />

the global deforestation slowed by 6.3% in 2021, compared with the baseline<br />

average in 2018-2020. This is quite “modest” progress as an annual 10% cut is<br />

needed to end deforestation by 2030.<br />

goals” by Natasha Gilbert<br />
