Between 2001 and 2023, Honduras lost almost a fifth of its forest cover, according to Global Forest Watch. The biggest driver of deforestation was shifting agriculture (accounting for 74% of tree cover loss), followed by commodity-driven deforestation (25%), wildfires, forestry and urbanization (less than 1%), according to Global Forest Watch data from 2023.
