Sierra Madre: Fighting to save what’s left of a vital rainforest in the Philippines – BBC News


It is estimated that about 90% of the Sierra Madre rainforest, which protects the Philippines from the worst of climate change, is gone due to mining, quarrying and illegal logging.

It’s regularly hit by powerful storms, landslides, and flooding.

Replanting the trees in the Sierra Madre is said to be long, difficult, and even a dangerous job.

It has become a home to a conflict between people needing to make a living and people wanting to preserve the rainforest.
