The loss of tree cover not only affects the local ecosystem but also has broader implications for climate change, biodiversity, and the livelihoods of communities dependent on these forests. With a total area of over 126 million hectares and a tree cover extent of just over 409,000 hectares, the loss represents a significant proportion of Chad's natural resources.
The trend of tree cover loss in Chad underscores the need for urgent attention to sustainable land management practices. It also raises questions about the long-term environmental stability of the region and the effectiveness of current measures to protect and restore these vital ecosystems.
