The data presents the percentage of the world’s forest in five distinct areas. The figures are illustrated using two pie charts, which compare forest area and timber distribution worldwide.
In general, Europe, Asia, North America, and South America display a slight gap between the two pie charts. On the other hand, Africa, which is the highest on the left circle, becomes the lowest on the right side, showing a clear contrast.
Firstly, Africa, which takes the largest part, with 27%, has the smallest proportion of timber, at 9%. Following North America, which is the second-largest forest in the world, accounting for 25%, there is a significant section of 30% in the timber population.
However, Europe, Asia, and South America don’t exhibit any considerable changes overall. Starting with Europe, standing in third place with 18%, increases by 2% in timber. South America and Asia, with 14% and 16%, show a slightly bigger difference of 18% and 23% between the two figures.
