“The number of tree species and individuals per continent in the Global Forest Biodiversity Initiative (GFBI) database. This dataset (blue points in the central map) was used for the parametric estimation and merged with the TREECHANGE occurrence-based data (purple points in the central map) to provide the estimates in this study. Green areas represent the global tree cover. GFBI consists of abundance-based records of 38 million trees for 28,192 species. Depicted here are some of the most frequent species recorded in each continent. Some GFBI and TREECHANGE points may overlap in the map. Image credit: Gatti et al., doi: 10.1073/pnas.2115329119.“

Hanoi in developing Vietnam also faces the challenges of development led urbanisation, population growth, urban migration, resource constraints, and ecological and environmental obliviousness. Yet visit the densest quarters of downtown and witness diverse tree lined avenues, tree-encircled lakes, and leafy rain screening canopies for outside eateries where the Vietnamese constantly dine on those wonderfully delicate, mint and lemon grass infused soups and noodles. Go to Angkor Wat in once genocide ravaged Cambodia. Not just the ancient overgrown temples dotted across hundreds of acres but also some of the tallest and grandest trees I have seen, lovingly protected, that conjure the magic, attracting millions of global visitors. Bangkok continues to face its urban growth challenges and yet no one can describe it as denuded of its tree cover. Chiang Mai in the north is even greener.

Tropical forests saw big tree losses in 2017
Satellite data suggest that tropical tree cover loss in 2017 was less than in 2016, but still greater than in any other year on record. The excellent info-graphics above are taken from the World Resources Institute (26 June 2018), while the summary points below come from The New York Times (6/27/2018).
The world’s tropical forests lost some 39 million acres of trees last year, an area roughly the size of Bangladesh, according to a report by Global Forest Watch of the World Resources Institute, which used new satellite data from the University of Maryland. Global Forest Watch.
The satellite data, for example, provide a clearer picture of Brazil’s vast Amazon rain forests, long vulnerable to widespread deforestation. Over the past decade, the Brazilian government has moved to reduce illegal logging, and Western agriculture companies like Cargill have pledged to farm more sustainably.
Still, Brazil lost a record amount of tree cover in 2016 and 2017, In large part because of large fire outbreaks in the Amazon. These fires are typically started by farmers and ranchers to clear land, but a severe drought last year caused them to spread rapidly, particularly in the southeastern area of Amazonia.
The new report comes as ministers from forest nations around the world meet in Oslo this week to discuss how to step up efforts to protect the world’s tropical forests, which host roughly half of all species worldwide and play a key role in regulating Earth’s climate.

TROPICAL DEFORESTATION: Despite rhetoric, tree cover declines
More and more companies are committing to eliminate deforestation from their supply chains, but new data show the tropics lost a Vietnam-sized area of forest in the last two years. WRI Distinguished Senior Fellow Frances Seymour reviews the recent data and analyzes the causes. Her main argument goes as follows:
No amount of international concern about tropical forests will make a difference unless it meaningfully connects to domestic constituencies in forested countries, and changes the incentives that drive deforestation.
