Over the years, the pattern of tree cover loss has been consistent, with shifting agriculture causing the majority of the damage. Forestry activities, wildfires, and urbanization also contribute to the decline, although to a lesser extent. Despite some gains in tree cover, the net loss remains a pressing concern for the country's biodiversity and environmental health.
As Tanzania grapples with these environmental challenges, the focus on sustainable practices and the protection of remaining tree cover becomes increasingly vital. The country's rich biodiversity and natural resources depend on concerted efforts to reverse these trends and ensure a greener future.
