Summary
editDescriptionThe reforestation of Costa Rica.jpg |
English: For years, Costa Rica struggled with the devastating consequences of deforestation. The natural landscape was heavily threatened, and the nation's rich biodiversity was at risk. However, over the past 15 years, Costa Rica has taken massive steps in land restoration, successfully increasing its forest cover from a mere 25% to an impressive 57%. This remarkable transformation was the result of multiple efforts to revitalise the nation's precious ecosystems. On 18 April, one of the Copernicus Sentinel-2 satellites captured the Monteverde Cloud Forest Biological Preserve, one of the areas positively impacted by the successful reforestation process. The Copernicus satellites enable continuous monitoring of forests, providing invaluable data for tracking and managing their health and growth. |
