The world loses almost six million hectares of forest annually to deforestation. That's like losing an area the size of Portugal every two years. 95% of this occurs in the tropics.

Tropical forests are home to some of the planet's richest and most diverse ecosystems, with over half of the world's species residing there and packed with unique wildlife. When rainforests are cut down, they destroy many unique species' habitats and permanently reshape these ecosystems. In addition, when deforestation happens, almost all of the carbon stored in the trees and vegetation – called the ‘aboveground carbon loss' – is lost.
