Mining is an important driver of deforestation, disproportionately affecting critical rainforests and protected areas. A recent WRI analysis using University of Maryland’s tree cover loss data from 2001 to 2020 shows that in that time, the world lost nearly 1.4 million hectares of trees from mining and related activities.
In this webinar, we’ll explore the intersection between mining and deforestation in Latin America. We’ll begin with an overview of the Global Forest Watch (GFW) platform and the role of satellite data in tracking deforestation, followed by insights from the NICFI Satellite Data program.
Invited partners will provide an in-depth look at mining activities and how they contribute to forest loss across the region. We will also bring together on-the-ground perspectives from organizations, Indigenous communities and law enforcement to offer insights into strategies for combating illegal deforestation linked to mining.
Join us for this important conversation about the environmental impacts of mining and how we can collectively work to safeguard our forests.
This event was hosted in Spanish with simultaneous English interpretation.
