Jun 13 2008 Despite continued forest conversion and degradation forest cover is increasing in countries across the globe. New forests are regenerating on former agricultural land and forest plantations are being established for commercial and restoration purposes. Plantations and restored forests can improve ecosystem services and enhance biodiversity conservation but will not match
Jul 19 2021 Authors Rafael Castro and Andres Castillo Geospace Solutions Illegal mining in Latin America has had devastating effects on forests and river channels leading to negative downstream impacts on the health of local people flora and fauna. The increase in the international price of gold has spurred the spread of illegal mining attracting thousands to the region. The main problem with .

Mar 22 2021 Mining activities have driven 7 of deforestation according to a 2012 assessment. A 2020 update by NYDF says extraction companies are increasingly recognising their forest impacts. However report author Erin Matson told us This increase is unfortunately starting from a very low baseline so the attention paid to deforestation by .
Forest-smart mining is an important building block within the Climate Smart Mining Initiative providing practical guidelines to ensure that the growth of mining will not be at the expense of forests. The approach acknowledges and understands the relationship between forests and other land uses such as socio-economic uses and ecosystem .
Forests are the most biologically diverse terrestrial ecosystems. Tropical forests are particularly diverse and provide the greatest source of endemic plant species in the world. The key direct impact of mining on forest ecosystems is the removal of vegetation and canopy cover. Indirect impacts include road-building and pipeline development which
