Destacó que desde inicios del siglo XXI hasta los años 2010 y 2018, el ritmo de deforestación de los bosques disminuyó un 30%.

Sin embargo, alertó de la amenaza continua que pende sobre los bosques tropicales

El pastoreo de ganado en Sudamérica y la expansión de tierras de cultivo serían parte de la problemática

La organización destaca que la deforestación se redujo de los 11 millones de hectáreas al año entre 2000 y 2010

La región que sufrió una mayor pérdida de masa forestal entre 2000 y el 2018 fue Sudamérica con 68 millones de hectáreas

La superficie de suelo forestal plantado aumentó en 46 millones de hectáreas en el período 2000-2018.

El principal motivo de la deforestación, con cerca del 50%, es la expansión de las tierras dedicadas al cultivo
