I'm the editor of a new yearlong series for Mongabay.com on the global reach of agroforestry--which nowadays covers over 1 billion hectares, the size of Canada, and removes .73 gigatons of carbon from the atmosphere annually and which benefits food security and biodiversity--the first feature shares the ways this is a potentially key solution for the climate, the environment, and communities:

I will be publishing a new feature to the series in the coming days about agroforestry taking hold in agricultural areas adjacent to Brazil's incredibly diverse Atlantic Forest, which is benefiting both people and biodiversity. All features in the series will be available here <https://news.mongabay.com/series/global-agroforestry/>. Best wishes, Erik -- Editor and Content Strategist Mongabay.com
