The line chart and bar chart provide statistical information on the amount of died out flora and fauna in tropical forests, per million species, in a period of more than 100 years and factors putting plant life in jeopardy. Generally speaking, human is the biggest contributor posing a threat to vegetation.
More specifically, starting at only under 5000 at the beginning of the period, extinct species experience a dramatic rise till 2060 when the figures are expected to peak at 50000 which is as much as 10 times higher than in 2000. The amount of extinctions falls steadily throughout the remaining period and seems set to continue. Agriculture has the most serious repercussion on plant life with the percentage of 18,7% which balances with the combination of natural disasters and other natural events( respectively at 7% and 11,7%). Plantations and invasive species each account for approximately 5%. This is almost 3 times lower than the second largest category: harvesting( about 14,4%) and half of the proportion of development( over 10%).
