The UK government has announced it has committed to spending £100 million on international forestry projects despite confirming plans it is looking to sell off 2.5 million acres of its own woodland to private buyers.
The money comes from the new international climate finance included in the Comprehensive Spending Review, which will include new money for the UK’s contribution to REDD+ (Reducing Emissions from Deforestation and Forest Degradation), a programme which aims to prevent the loss of forests in developing countries.
