七幅地图带你从七个角度看世界

5. The world's greenest places
5. 世界上最绿的地方

The map above shows those countries with the highest percentage of forest area, according to World Bank Open Data. Unsurprisingly, the tropical lands of South America, the Caribbean, Africa, south-east Asia and the South Pacific dominate, with Suriname, Micronesia, Palau, Gabon, Guyana, American Samoa and the Solomon Islands all in the top 10. But some more northerly countries fare well too, with Finland (72.9 percent forest area), 11th, Sweden (69.2 percent) 15th, and Japan (68.6 percent) 17th. And the least tree-filled countries? There are four with no forest whatsoever, according to World Bank's definition - San Marino, Qatar, Greenland and Oman - while in a further 12 places there is less than one percent.
上面的地图基于世界银行公开数据库，显示了森林覆盖率最高的国家。不出所料，南美洲的热带地区、加勒比地区、非洲、东南亚和苏里南、密克罗尼亚、帕劳、加蓬、圭亚那、美属萨摩亚和所罗门群岛等南太平洋国家位列前十。但是一些北半球的国家也不错，芬兰（森林面积72.9%）位于第11位，瑞典（69.2%）第15位，日本（68.6%）第17位。森林覆盖率最少的国家呢？根据世界银行的定义，有四个国家一点森林都没有，它们是圣马力诺、卡塔尔、格陵兰、阿曼。还有12个地方的森林覆盖率少于百分之一。
