...thought about the things we did right and we resolved to keep doing them, no matter how wacky they were. For example, sometimes, I admit this even for TIME.com, that I sleep in my clothes. I did last night. It's easier. I'm wearing sweatpants, so it's great because I wake up and I'm already dressed and I'm warm at night. So, my UnResolution is to keep sleeping in my clothes.

...play a critical role in regulating our climate. Forests store an estimated 300 billion tons of carbon, or the equivalent of 40 times the world's total annual greenhouse-gas emissions - emissions that cause global warming.
