Deforestation in #Colombia falls to lowest level in 23 years https://www.theguardian.com/world/article/2024/jul/10/deforestation-in-colombia-falls-to-lowest-level-in-23-years
"The amount of #forest loss fell from 1,235 sq km in 2022 to 792 sq km in 2023 – a 36% decrease... Most of the environmental gains were in the #Amazon #rainforest, where the Colombian government is focusing much of its conservation efforts... Runaway #deforestation has been reined in and reversed under Gustavo Petro’s government, the first leftist administration in Colombia’s history."
