Deforestation in Myanmar : ウィキペディア英語版 | Deforestation in Myanmar
According to a report by the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations, Myanmar (also known as Burma) lost 7,445,000 hectares (28,750 sq mi) of forest between 1990 and 2010. With forests covering as much as 70% of Burma at the time of independence, there is currently only a little above 40% forest cover left.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://rainforests.mongabay.com/deforestation/2000/Myanmar.htm )〕 Losing 0.3% of its forest cover annually, deforestation in Myanmamr is less than other countries in the region such as Indonesia or Vietnam, but still remains an important environmental issue. Myanmar possesses the largest expanse of tropical forest in mainland Southeast Asia with a biodiversity much greater than temperate forests. As of 2010, Burma’s living forest biomass holds 1,654 million metric tons of carbon and is home to over 80 endemic species.〔 Despite the diversity and size of Burma’s forests, only 6.3% of the land is protected and much of it is under the threat of deforestation. == History ==
