The UN Food and Agriculture Organization has released a CD version of its 2010 Global Forest Resources Assessment, containing the full report, a summary of key findings, and various data tables.
In addition to deforestation, the Assessment identifies unsustainable forest management, climate change, forest fires, insect pests and diseases, natural disasters and invasive species, as threats to forest biodiversity.
