Forests help tackle climate change, absorb carbon, provide recreational activities and are a source of timber. The social and environmental value of woodland in the UK is estimated at £1 billion per year. The two main 2020VISION forest assignments focused on restoration proejects in the Caledonian pine forest in the Scottish Highlands and The National Forest in the heart of England. 2020VISION's photographers aimed to capture the essence of British forests, their animals and plants, and the people who work and play in them.
