World Forests in 2025
Introduction
Satellites show that fewer tropical forests disappeared in 2025. However, we still lose too many trees to help the planet.
Main Body
Brazil and Colombia lost fewer trees in 2025. Brazil has new, strong laws to protect the forest. This helped the trees stay safe. In Asia, the news is different. Malaysia lost fewer trees, but Indonesia lost more. Indonesia cut trees to make farms and mines. Fires are a big problem. Canada and France had very bad fires because the weather was too hot and dry. These fires destroyed many trees.
Conclusion
Some countries have good plans, but the world is not doing enough to stop forest loss by 2030.

🟢 The "Comparison" Trick
To reach A2, you need to describe changes. Look at how the text compares numbers and amounts using simple words:
Fewer Smaller number (used for things we can count, like trees). More Larger number.
Patterns from the text:
- Fewer tropical forests disappeared.
- Brazil and Colombia lost fewer trees.
- Indonesia lost more.
Quick Rule: If you want to say a number went down use Fewer. If you want to say a number went up use More.
Vocabulary Boost: Why things happen Notice the word because. It connects a result to a reason:
Bad fires because hot and dry weather
