Zambia faces an urgent climate and environmental crisis. Each year, the country loses over 172,000 hectares of forest, driven by poverty, unsustainable agriculture, charcoal production, and illegal logging. More than 5.2 million hectares of land are now degraded, undermining food production and pushing families deeper into poverty. At the same time, climate change is accelerating soil erosion, unpredictable rainfall, and declining fertility are reducing agricultural productivity, while increasing the cost of living and migration pressures in rural communities.
