Tech-Driven Conservation: Protecting the Congo Basin Rainforest

The Congo Basin rainforest, the world’s second-largest tropical forest, plays a crucial role in global biodiversity and climate regulation. Spanning over 500 million acres, it is home to diverse wildlife, including gorillas, forest elephants, and rare plant species. Additionally, the rainforest acts as a major carbon sink, helping mitigate climate change. However, illegal logging, mining, and agricultural expansion pose significant threats to this fragile ecosystem. Technology is emerging as a powerful tool in the fight against deforestation and habitat destruction. Advanced satellite imagery and AI-powered monitoring systems are being used to track illegal activities in real time, allowing conservationists to respond swiftly to environmental threats.
