Question

Accepted Answer

Africa. Africa is correct because the FRA 2020 reported it as having the highest annual rate of forest loss during that period. Australia is incorrect because its forest loss rate was not the highest among the options. South America is incorrect because while it has significant forest cover, its rate of loss was lower than Africa's in this timeframe. Asia is incorrect because its overall forest loss rate was less than that of Africa.
