For this year’s observance of International Environment Day the United Nations is focusing on the plight of forests worldwide. In Haiti, there remains less than one percent tree cover. Most deforestation is caused by the local population’s need for land to farm, wood to build with, and charcoal to cook with. The result has left immense tracks of land bare to the elements, hastened massive soil erosion and increased land slides and flash flooding.

With the assistance of the United Nations Development Programme (UNDP), the Government of Ethiopia has launched a massive reafforestation to counteract serious soil erosion and degradation, declining agricultural production and widespread famine. The programme is specifically designed to study the adaptability of various tree species to the country's diverse bioclimatic zones and eventually lead to a better integration of agriculture and forestry.
