Deforestation in the Amazon continues to decline!
According to satellite data from DETER, the first three months of 2025 saw around 400 km² of forest lost in the Amazon.
That's 20% lower than the first three months of 2024, and less than half the 844 km² that was lost in the first three months of 2023. #climate #ClimateChange #Amazon #deforestation #environment
