Deforestation also plays a large role in biodiversity loss. More than half of the worlds biodiversity is hosted in tropical rainforest [1]. Regions that are subjected to exponential loss of biodiversity are referred to as "Hotspots", since 1988 the hotspots increased from 10 to 34, of the total 34 hotspots currently present, 16 of them are in tropical regions [2]. Only 2.3% of the world is covered with hotspots however, even though only a small percentage of the world is covered in hotspots, it host a large portion (50%) of vascular plant species [3].
