What is being done to combat deforestation by governments, organizations, and individuals?

People are also trying to help combat deforestation. They are creating organizations, individuals work with others, and governments are creating ways to stop deforestation. 

The Greenpeace organization is one that is trying to help slow down deforestation. They are considered to be a cooperation that try to stop deforestation. They continue to make campaigns and create policies. 
The wilderness act was created in 1964 to combat deforestation. This organizations protects America's wild life. It preserves 9.1 million acres of land and has put 54 areas into the system, this including 13 states. 


Policies can also be created to stop deforestation. The roadless rule is a policy created on January 12, 2001. It stops the act of logging. 58.8 million acres of land have been saved because of this rule.
