Haiti’s forests have been cut down by more than 95%. Some
people consider that the deforestation has reached an alarming level of 99%.
Due to this there is only 39% land that can be cultivated. In this country more
than 70% people live below poverty level. This huge destruction of forests has
resulted in climatic changes as well. The people of Haiti wanted to end poverty
by going for industrialization by destroying forests. This was a bad move on
the part of the people of Haiti.
