The amount of forests in the world has decreased primarily due to deforestation driven by agricultural expansion, logging, and urban development. Unsustainable practices, such as illegal logging and land conversion for farming, have significantly contributed to forest loss. Additionally, climate change and natural disasters like wildfires have exacerbated the decline. As a result, it is estimated that the world has lost about 1.3 million square kilometers of forest between 1990 and 2020.
