# Launch of the platform for observation and fight against imported deforestation | ATIBT

> A WWF report found 43 million hectares of forest were lost across 24 deforestation fronts in 29 countries over about 13 years. It links 10% of global deforestation to EU demand for beef, soy for animal feed, palm oil and other products. WWF is calling for a strong new EU law on deforestation-linked imports.
