Forests and trees protect us in an infinite number of ways. They provide us with the clean air that we breathe and the water that we drink. They shelter and protect the biodiversity of the planet and are our natural defence against climate change. Life on earth is made possible and sustainable by the presence of trees and forests. The importance of forests is remembered on 21 March by celebrating the International Forest Day set up on 21 March 2012 by the United Nations General Assembly.
