The New York Times has created a visual tracking global forest loss, measured by area cleared or burned and separating intentional deforestation, such as logging and land clearing, from fire-driven destruction. The graphic highlights a surge in wildfire losses and varying trends across tropical regions, including agriculture-driven deforestation in Southeast Asia. It uses green for total forest loss, including human-caused, and red for fire-related loss, with circle size representing total area affected.
