Description:	The challenges posed by climate change, which are already a reality in many aspects of daily life, require a multi-sectoral dialogue and strategies distinct from those already addressed by various societal actors, particularly scientists, policymakers, companies, and investors. Mitigation actions for greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions depend substantially on the contribution of forest ecosystems, especially tropical forests. Additionally, adaptation actions are crucial to minimize population risks in the face of current challenges, where Nature-based Solutions (NbS) once again emerge as key allies. Thus, forest ecosystems, which have often been and still are perceived as obstacles to “development”, as a reflection of delayed modernization, are in fact the main strategy for climate change mitigation and adaptation. However, these same ecosystems, along with their biodiversity and functionality, are affected by climate change. Therefore, it is necessary to reinforce the global alliance for the monitoring, conservation, and restoration of forest ecosystems, which have soil as their primary substrate
