Potential reduction of species extinction risk resulting from threat abatement actions

Absolute value (STAR)

85

0.1% of the total biodiversity conservation potential of Brazil is covered by this project.

62,341

11.5% of The Americas's biodiversity conservation potential is from Brazil.

543,527.6

45.4% of global biodiversity conservation potential is from The Americas.

This stacked bar chart represents the relative disaggregation of the selected contribution's total potential opportunity for reducing global species extinction risk through taking actions to abate different threats to species within its boundaries. The percentages refer to the amount of the total opportunity that could potentially be achieved through abating that particular threat.
