Grasslands are vanishing nearly four times faster than forests according to a new study. Grasslands are far more than just "green spaces". Around 20 to 35% of the carbon sequestered worldwide is stored in these ecosystems. Around 33% of global biodiversity hotspots are located in grassland regions.
