Date Time Share Research exposes big differences among Amazonian countries in their rates of forest recovery as well as deforestation Bangor University Large-scale forest restoration in the Amazon is an important “nature-based solution” to climate change, a major focus of the UK-hosted UN Climate Change COP26 Conference in November. Forest recovery, the process of new forest growing on land that has previously been deforested then abandoned from agriculture, can rapidly capture large quantities of the greenhouse gas CO ­ 2 from the atmosphere. It is key to the success of global climate change policies that aim to reduce greenhouse gas concentrations in the atmosphere, and as a way to achieve “net zero” emissions.
