Personal perspectives, exploring together
Greenhouse Gas Emissions
In 1850, which is at the end of the first Industrial Revolution, the discharge amount of carbon dioxide was 198 million tons, However, in 2019 carbon dioxide emissions have reached 59 billion tons.
Forest Decline
The total global forest area is now 4.06 billion hectares, accounting for nearly 31% of the total land areas. Since 1990, a total of 420 million hectares have been destroyed. The top three countries in the world with tropical rainforests, Brazil, the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC) and Indonesia, are all at historical lows in terms of forest cover.
Climate Anomaly
Due to the influence of natural and human activities, especially reduction of forests and emission of greenhouse gases, rare climate phenomena have occurred more and more frequently.
