Countries Appendix NEPAL (35.2%) Nepal is one of the world's most diverse, yet poorest countries. High population pressures lead to deforestation on steep mountain slopes causing massive soil erosion and flooding in the plains. Only a small portion of Nepal was ever covered by rainforests, but what does exist is threatened by fuelwood collection and subsistence agriculture. |
