What better way is there to learn to appreciate a forest than by taking a walk among the trees?
"The United Nations General Assembly declared 2011 as the International Year of Forests to raise awareness on sustainable management, conservation and sustainable development of all types of forests for the benefit of current and future generations."
And with good reason... According to the UN website "Forests are home to 80% of our terrestrial biodiversity. The livelihoods of over 1.6 billion people depend on forests."
