The pie charts compare the proportion of forests and the timber they provide in five continents of the world.
Overall, although Africa is the home for the most forests, the percentage of timber which is taken is surprisingly the least in the group. The rate of forests and timber in the remaining four regions, however, has a relatively close correlation.
Looking into details, most of the world's forests are primarily found in Africa and North America, with the percentages of them being 27% and 25% respectively. Europe makes up 18% of the forests, whereas 16% of world forests are located in South America. Asia is the continent with the least proportion of forests at 14%.
As for the timber produced from the forests, this product is taken in large quantities especially from North American and South American forests (30% and 23% accordingly). Europe and Asia are responsible for around a fifth of the timber. Interestingly, Africa, which comprises of the largest proportion of forests, is three times lower in terms of timber production.
