Si rien n’est fait, d’ici 2030, il ne restera que 10% des forêts de la Terre

Taux de déforestation traduit en Français:

[…]La déforestation mondiale s’est fortement accélérée vers 1852. On estime qu’environ la moitié des forêts tropicales matures de la Terre – entre 7,5 millions et 8 millions de km2 (2,9 millions à 3 millions de milles carrés) des 15 millions à 16 millions de km2 d’origine (5,8 millions à 6,2 millions de milles carrés) qui jusqu’à 1947 a couvert la planète – a maintenant été détruit. Certains scientifiques ont prédit qu’à moins que des mesures importantes (telles que la localisation et la protection des forêts anciennes qui n’ont pas été perturbées) soient prises à l’échelle mondiale, d’ici 2030, il ne restera que 10%.[…]

Rates of deforestation extrait en Anglais:

[…]Global deforestation[111] sharply accelerated around 1852.[112][113] It has been estimated that about half of the Earth’s mature tropical forests—between 7.5 million and 8 million km2 (2.9 million to 3 million sq mi) of the original 15 million to 16 million km2 (5.8 million to 6.2 million sq mi) that until 1947 covered the planet[114]—have now been destroyed.[10][115] . Some scientists have predicted that unless significant measures (such as seeking out and protecting old growth forests that have not been disturbed)[114] are taken on a worldwide basis, by 2030 there will only be 10% remaining,[…]
