Heading: Low share of public funds Body text: But there are also positive developments, the report says. 50 countries worldwide are on the way to ending deforestation. Brazil, Indonesia and Malaysia, which are home to large rainforests that are considered important carbon sinks and have important functions in the fight against climate change, also made progress in combating the loss. According to the report, $2.2 billion in public funds flow into forests worldwide every year, which is a negligible proportion compared to other global investments. Governments should also create an environment with more incentives for companies to protect, sustainably manage and restore forests, the authors say.
