English: The Global Forest Resources Assessment 2020 (FRA 2020), examines the status of, and trends in, more than 60 forest-related variables in 236 countries and territories in the period 1990–2020.
The most recent assessment, FRA 2020, examined the status of, and trends in, more than 60 forest-related variables in 236 countries and territories in the period 1990–2020. The assessment showed that although the rate of deforestation has slowed, the world's forest area continues to decrease. [ 16 ]
[153] [154] According to Global Forest Watch, this was a 3.1% decrease in primary rain forest in that period. [155] In 2014, the Map of the Peruvia Amazon showed that more than 25% of the lost forest area was part of idigenous territories and protected natural areas. [156] During 2020, the Peruvian amazon lost more than 200 000 hectares. [157]

The IPCC Sixth Assessment Report stated in 2022: “Over 420 million ha of forest were lost to deforestation from 1990 to 2020; more than 90% of that loss took place in tropical areas (high confidence), threatening biodiversity, environmental services, livelihoods of forest communities and resilience to climate shocks (high confidence).” [28]
