Forestwho

Forestwho is a term used in environmental education and online discourse to refer to a forest as a personified entity or to a narrator that speaks for forests. It functions as a narrative device to illustrate ecological concepts and conservation messages. The term is not tied to a single organization or formal theory; rather, it emerged in informal contexts as a way to make discussions about forests more accessible and relatable.

The usage often appears in educational materials, simulations, and social media campaigns, where forestwho explains processes such as nutrient cycling, succession, and biodiversity, or critiques activities that harm forests. In some cases, forestwho is used as a stand-in for the forest's perspective when presenting scenarios about climate change, logging, or land use changes, inviting audiences to consider the consequences from the forest's point of view.

In addition to being a narrative tool, forestwho may appear as a username or persona for individuals promoting forest conservation online. The term is informal and fluid; different communities may ascribe different voices to forestwho, while avoiding the claim of a universal representation.
