What percentage of amazon forest is left? How long will it last ?

Answer 1

A new report by a Brazilian congressional committee says the Amazon is vanishing at a rate of 52,000 square kilometers per year (20,000 miles² per year), over three times the rate for which the last official figures were reported in 1994, at this rate the Amazon rainforest will be gone by 2050.[1] For any accurate information on the expansion, percentage, maps, figures, analysis on deforestation in the Brazilian Amazonia check the website of the non-governamental organization IMAZON - Amazon Insitute of People and the Environment. It has plenty of documents, articles and reports in English for users to download.
