Understanding Global Deforestation
Trees cut down today represents one of the most critical environmental crises facing our planet. With 42 million trees lost daily and only 14 million planted, we're losing more forest than we can replace. This contributes significantly to climate change and biodiversity loss.
Also known as deforestation, forest clearing, and tree harvesting, this metric is closely related to carbon emissions, habitat destruction, and soil erosion.
Our deforestation counter tracks multiple dimensions including trees per second, hectares lost, regional breakdown, and primary causes of forest destruction.
