Deforestation in Colombia dropped by 29 percent in 2022, falling to the lowest level in nearly 10 years, according to newly released government statistics.
The figures, published on July, show particular gains in regions of the Amazon rainforest, considered an important “carbon sink” for trapping greenhouse gas emissions in the fight against climate change.
