2023 caused greenhouse gas emissions equal to half
of the United States' annual fossil fuel emissions.

nations with the most primary forest losses. .
Despite remaining on top of the list, forest loss in
Brazil fell 36% as a result of President Luiz Inacio
Lula da Silva's aggressive conservation policies. .

a 49% decline in forest loss amid President
