Best of Earth Matters 2021 - All About Forests

We look back at some of the issues and stories covered on Earth Matters in 2021 concerning the protection of forests, focussing on three stories in particular: firstly, the links between deforestation and flooding, secondly, the ongoing Kuala Langat North Forest Reserve saga, and finally, the proposed development of the Shah Alam Community Forest.
