Besides, the extreme weather conditions, devastating hurricanes, and excessive drought & floods affects our health, the soil, and crops. Deforestation, which is one of the major contributors of climate change & global warming, releases a massive amount of carbon dioxide during the incineration and burning of forest plants when clearing land. Consider this, the island of Haiti has less than 1% of its forests left and with its ongoing food crisis, this phenomenon is worsening its agricultural sector. In an effort to solve the issues of deforestation in Haiti, non-profit organization Lambi Fund of Haiti and Kenyan Nobel Peace Prize winner, Wangari Maathai of the Green Belt Movement is partnering to plant 1 million trees over three years on an island where less than 1 percent of its forest remains.
