There is less deforestation now than 20 years ago!


For the past couple of years, there have been so many controversial debates about deforestation and other causes of Global Warming. Media always say that we have to cut down on the electricity, stop wasting CO2, and decrease the amount of Deforestation. Brazil is one of the countries with the most deforestation, and therefore I am happy to tell you that the amount of trees cut down in Brazil has decreased significantly. :)
It is so great to know that the world finally has decided to do something about these environmental issues!

The diagram above is in Swedish, so I will just briefly explain what it says. The first circle where it says 10 %, shows how much the deforestation in Brazil has decreased since 1985. The second circle, where it says 21 %, shows how much the deforestation in Borneo has decreased since 1985. These statistics are great, but we still have a ling way to go. So keep supporting these kind of green projects. :)
