- brabel 5y agoThat's a really important fact, I think... as everyone is screamaing at South America but to my knowledge, very few people know the problem seems to be getting a lot worse in Africa. Also, surpising that South America has the highest percentage of protected forests in the world at 30%, much higher than North America and Europe.. and that while Russia and Brazil have the biggest forests in the world, Russia actually has more than double the amount forest as Brazil!
