Forests

The Forest episode explores stories from Borneo to Guatemala, where people are reshaping the way we can live and work in forests while still coexisting with wildlife. In Borneo, efforts are underway to plant native trees within palm oil plantations, creating wildlife corridors for orangutan families. In Guatemala, a community forestry organization sustainably harvests trees, protecting habitats like those of the highly endangered scarlet macaws. And in Spain, a landowner restores his farm, overrun with invasive pines, to support wildlife like the rare Iberian lynx and secure his family's future.
