Abstract
During the exploration, loss of global forest and biodiversity, climate changes and emissions were evaluated and determined the best ways to restore the world's ecosystem using green energy. The suggested primary land use data were collected and collated forest resources were assessed. Ways of biodiversity conservation strategies and status were evaluated. The GHG emission was inventoried and calculated. Author inferred that primary forest loss in the tropics increased by 10% in 2022, with the Amazon destroyed in 2020. The world's forest cover is decreasing, with significant losses in sub-Saharan Africa and Latin America. The world's total growing stock of trees fell slightly from 560 billion m3 in 1990 to 557 billion m3 in 2020, with 606 Gt of living biomass and 59 Gt of dead wood. However, biomass per unit area has increased. During the period of incidence of COVID, reduced emissions by 5.2% was noticed. With a mean temperature of 1.11°C, 2021 was one of the seven warmest years on record. The main source of worldwide total GHG emissions from exclusive land use are CO2, CH4, and N2, which account for 72%, 19%, and 6% of emissions respectively while F gases from other sources contribute only 3%. The forest ecosystems absorb 2 billion tons of CO2 per year, and emissions can be reduced through natural synergies between climate preservation and development, such as increased energy demand and renewable energy.
