As we wrote about last week, the Global Land Analysis and Discovery system monitors land surface change to allow for better understanding of deforestation through data collection, enabling the Global Forest Watch to act efficiently to better protect forests.
This interactive map lets users see forest coverage across the world and view the loss and gain of trees over time as far back as 2000, as well as variations in climate and biodiversity.
