Why the Congo Rainforest is critical to climate change. | Robert Kain, BSCE, MS | TEDxTaftAvenue
TEDx Talks· 2025-06-25 15:42
Grauer’s gorillas, Earth’s largest primates, are being killed for bushmeat, and the Congo Rainforest, their home, is being destroyed by fire. Scientists have recently discovered that the Congo Rainforest’s net CO2 absorption is far more than any other forest, much more than the larger Amazon, making saving it an urgent climate change priority. After retiring from a career creating environmentally friendly, energy-efficient buildings, Robert Kain changed course in 2022 to address the Congo Rainforest catastr ...
