The given table illustrates the size of forest land in the percentage of 4 chosen countries in 1990 and 2005 as well as the estimated statistics for the year 2015. Those countries are Australia, New Zealand, Brazil and Chile.
Overall, New Zealand and Chile witnessed an increase in the proportion of land covered by trees and it is predicted that the rates will continue to grow while those of Australia and Brazil decrease noticeably.
There was 28. 8% of forest land in 1990 in New Zealand, yet years after the number rocketed by 2. 2% and it is forecasted that the rates in 2015 will increase substantially to 32. 3%. Besides, the proportion of land covered with trees in Chile had a moderate increase from 20. 4% to 21. 5%, Chile is estimated that it will have 22. 0% of forested land.
On the contrary, Brazil was the country having the percentage of forest area nearly tripled the rest in 1990 by 62. 2%, yet the statistic in the next 15 years declined significantly to 57. 2% and maybe in 2015, it will be only 53. 5%. Meanwhile, there was a slight decrease in the rates of woodland in Australia from 21. 9% in 1990 to 21. 3% in 2005 and it is estimated that this country in 2015 will have only 20% of the land covered forest.
