Argentina is the eighth largest country in the world, covers the southernmost point of South America, and is home to both the highest and lowest points in the Northern and Southern Hemispheres. The country is known for its diverse wildlife, like seals and penguins on the Patagonian coast, while other areas are home to flamingos, jaguars, and capybaras.
Argentina is home to 18 different eco-regions including plains, deserts, tropics, arctics, and the tallest mountains in the Americas. It has thousands of miles of coastline, but is most known for Mesopotamia- a rainforest region in the north, Gran Chaco- a dry region with the world's tallest volcano, and Pampas- flat plains that are home to the Parana river.
The native Polylepis forests act as a barrier to fires by generating humid environments and having bark with insulating and fire-retardant. This makes them more fire resistant and resilient in their post-fire recovery.
The restoration of the Polylepis forests will complete a vast ecosystem with the return of species of great biological importance, like the Puma, the Fox of Achala, and the Condor.
During the process of reforestation, there is a large uptake of carbon from the atmosphere that is fixed in the biomass of the forests and in the soil. This plays a fundamental role in the global carbon cycle and in mitigating climate change.
