The table shows forested land in millions of hectares in different parts of the world.
The table demonstrates forest area in millions of hectares in six specific places in the world, including Africa, Asia, Europe, North America, Oceania and South America from 1990 to 2005. Overall, the number of hectares varied differently in each year.
From the year 1990 to 2005, forested land in some areas rose. Start with Europe, in 1990, it had 989 million. Then in 2005, the number slightly increased to 1001. The same pattern went with Asia. Although the number of trees had a small drop, form 576 in 1990 to 570 million in 2000, it grew again to 584 million in 2005.
On the other hand, the other areas fell. While Oceania witnessed little drop, from 199 in 1990 to only 197 million in 2005, Africa and South America had a considerable decline. In 1990, the area of trees in Africa was 749 million, but in 2005, it was 691 million. It was also the case of South America, from 946 in 1990 to 882 million in 2005.
There was one place that remained the same number over the years, North America. Though the forested land fell from 708 to 705 million, it had not changed in the next five years of the period.
