The forests that cover 1/3 of our planet are disappearing at an alarming rate.

Along with the ocean, it is the second lung in our environment that sucks in carbon dioxide and releases oxygen.

We do the opposite!

Is it perhaps that their future is closely linked to ours?

We will take stock of this deforestation with our two guests, we will go to Gabon and Côte d'Ivoire where the desire to preserve the forest cover is there.
