flag Grasslands and wetlands are vanishing nearly four times faster than forests, mainly due to agricultural expansion for meat and crop production, a 15-year global study finds. flag These ecosystems store up to 35% of terrestrial carbon and support significant biodiversity, but their destruction releases greenhouse gases, disrupts water cycles, and threatens livelihoods. flag Experts urge stronger policies to protect them, promote sustainable farming, and improve monitoring to meet climate and conservation goals.
