Most forest land in Ireland is maintained by state forestation programmes. Twenty acres of forestation in the area acts against pollution. Recently, the Forest Service reported total forestation as in 2012. Bushcare volunteers help preserve remnant pockets of native forestation. Considerable revenues have been devoted to forestation, public landscaping, and parks. The cold temperatures and winds of the extreme south preclude heavy forestation. Urban forestation is one of the biggest issues for me in that context. In 1997, the Three Gorges area had 10% forestation, down from 20% in the 1950s. The lake is surrounded by vast woods as forestation of Tara mountain is 75%. The university hosts a program on rain forestation. Existing forestation programs were inadequate, however. Even in the town centre there is an unusually large amount of forestation. It is also used to give social message like forestation, saving girls, literacy, etc. Forestation covers 43% of the island. Due to heavy forestation on the island, the survival of the species is uncertain.
