Extrait -

Change in Forest Cover: Between 1990 and 2000, Liberia lost an average of 60,300 hectares of forest per year. The amounts to an average annual deforestation rate of 1.49%. Between 2000 and 2005, the rate of forest change increased by 17.3% to 1.74% per annum. In total, between 1990 and 2005, Liberia lost 22.3% of its forest cover, or around 904,000 hectares. Measuring the total rate of habitat conversion (defined as change in forest area plus change in woodland area minus net plantation expansion) for the 1990-2005 interval, Liberia lost 22.3% of its forest and woodland habitat.
