A ‘silver bullet’ strategy on the part of conservation planners, focusing on ‘biodiversity hotspots’ where exceptional concentrations of endemic species are undergoing exceptional loss of habitat, is proposed.
ScienceDetermination of Deforestation Rates of the World's Humid Tropical Forests

The recently completed research program (TREES) employing the global imaging capabilities of Earth-observing satellites provides updated information on the status of the world's humid tropical forest cover, indicating that the global net rate of change in forest cover for the humid tropics is 23% lower than the generally accepted rate.
