The 10 most threatened forests in the world

As the United Nations has declared 2011 the International Year of Forests, Conservation International has published a list of the 10 most threatened forests in the world. These forests have lost 90% or more of their original habitat and contain at least 1,500 endemic plant species. In addition, according to Conservation International, about 1 billion people live in or around these 10 forests, directly or indirectly exploiting forest resources.
