Peru's forests, which cover a significant portion of the country's land area, play a crucial role in carbon sequestration and maintaining biodiversity. The net change in tree cover over the years indicates a disturbing trend, with a net loss that reflects the ongoing struggle against deforestation.
The data highlights the need for sustainable land management practices and the importance of protecting Peru's natural resources. As the world becomes increasingly aware of the importance of forests in the fight against climate change, the situation in Peru serves as a call to action to preserve these vital ecosystems for future generations.
