Creating healthy and resilient forests is an all-hands-on-deck activity. There is a role in it for everybody — from individuals and local nonprofit organizations to federal government agencies and multi-national corporations. Forests Plus, the U.S. Chapter of 1t.org,  makes it easier than ever before for people to get involved. Forests Plus is made up of people who are committed to forest restoration for the benefit of people, planet and biodiversity.

Forests Plus is a collaborative platform led by American Forests with a goal to bring diverse stakeholders to the table in support of trees and forests in America and around the world.

Forests are under severe and growing threat from wildfires, invasive pests, development and more. The systems we rely on to restore forests, from seed banks and nurseries to skilled labor, are not equipped to meet this escalating demand. No single organization, government or company can solve this alone.

Forests Plus, convened by American Forests, unites leaders across sectors to restore landscapes and drive systems change. As the U.S. Chapter of 1t.org, the World Economic Forum’s global movement to conserve, restore and grow trees and forests, Forests Plus connects science and action to advance smart policy, build catalytic partnerships, and mobilize financing at scale. Together, we are growing a collaborative movement for forests that delivers lasting benefits for people, biodiversity and the planet.
