Two states will soon end logging of native forests, but what about the other states? The federal government has powers to intervene but also faces obstacles to nationwide protection of these forests.
More than 60% of global intact forest loss is unrelated to farming, our research shows
Deforestation in Brazil was falling before 2014. Under Bolsonaro, it’s back to record highs.
World leaders are slowly learning from decades of failure on tropical forest conservation.
Halting forest loss is a crucial milestone on the road to net zero.
Many are concerned that the highway is being built to benefit powerful commercial interests and not Indigenous people and will accelerate forest loss as seen in Sumatra and Kalimantan.
Attempts to formalise charcoal production have been largely unsuccessful.
New findings show how changes in land use have complex effects on animal and plant species.
Tanzania faces the challenge of conserving forests in a developing country with a rapidly expanding population.
A new survey has identified millions of hectares of forest in dryland areas, a finding that boosts the total global forest cover by 9% and has significant consequences for carbon budgets.
A time-series analysis of tree cover loss before, during and after road construction reveals a strong relationship between infrastructure development and accelerating deforestation.
Combining new technologies, including Global Forest Watch, a Forest Monitoring App and Participatory 3D Modelling, brings out traditional knowledge of the elders.
It’s important to close roads from further vehicle use after the end of logging operations. But these roads ought to be re-opened when the next phase of logging takes place in each area of forest.
More than 90% of Madagascar’s lemurs face extinction. Losing them will mean a loss of the valuable function they serve to the forests in which they live.
