Founded in 1999, Tr\u00f3pico Verde is a Guatemalan non-governmental organization dedicated to the defense of the environment, focusing on the protection of Guatemala&#8217;s wetlands and forests, and disseminating conservation information locally, regionally, nationally and internationally.<\/p><p>ParksWatch-Guatemala works to monitor and publicize the condition of the country&#8217;s protected areas, and to propose strategies for their improvement. It aims to make defending parks a high priority of the Guatemalan government, to hold industries accountable for their impact on the environment, and to raise environmental awareness among the Guatemalan society. Recently, ParksWatch-Guatemala has been focusing efforts on the Maya Biosphere Reserve in Northern Guatemala. The Maya Biosphere Reserve was created in 1990 and became Central America&#8217;s largest protected area, comprising more than 2 million hectares. The reserve links protected areas in neighboring Belize and Mexico to form the largest intact block of broad-leafed neotropical forest north of the Amazon. It is Guatemala&#8217;s most important protected area.<\/p><p>ParksWatch-Guatemala is the first comprehensive and independent effort to monitor the progress of conservation efforts in Guatemala. The ParksWatch &#8211; Tr\u00f3pico Verde partnership brings together people experienced in both research and advocacy, providing the means to evaluate and publicize the conservation status of Guatemala&#8217;s beleaguered protected areas.<\/p><p>ParksWatch-Guatemala is under the direction of Carlos Albacete.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-f746bd3 e-flex e-con-boxed e-con e-parent\" data-id=\"f746bd3\" data-element_type=\"container\" data-settings=\"{&quot;background_background&quot;:&quot;classic&quot;}\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"e-con-inner\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-aae2c7a e-n-tabs-mobile elementor-widget elementor-widget-n-tabs\" data-id=\"aae2c7a\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-settings=\"{&quot;horizontal_scroll&quot;:&quot;disable&quot;}\" data-widget_type=\"nested-tabs.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"e-n-tabs\" data-widget-number=\"179186810\" aria-label=\"Tabs.

It is crossed by a moutain range that spans the territory from the west to the southeast, where it drops abruptly to sea level. This is how, in a little more than 60 kilometers in a straight line, you can move from one protected area, Tajumulco Volcano, at 4220 meters in elevation, to another, Manch\u00f3n Guamuchal, at sea level. The north of the country is predominantly low plains, with hills that rarely surpass 500 meters in elevation. In the highlands the landscape is typical of more temperate regions, with the presence of conifers and oak trees (Quercus sp.), while in the low areas the vegetation is thick and abundant, as is characteristic of more tropical zones. The Mayan Forest is found in the north, shared with Mexico and Belize, encompassing the largest area of tropical forest in the world outside of the Amazon.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The geographic differences and the variety of climate are what give the country seven distinct ecoregions. In the south, the Pacific Ocean gives rise to the mangrove forests, which occupy the entire coast line and even a little ways inland, slowly mixing with the temporal and permanent humid forests. The Pacific dry forest begins to appear further inland, although it has been driven nearly extinct by pressure from humans. As the altitude increases toward the mountains, another type of forest occurs, the Sierra Madre humid forest, an oak-pine forest found in the mountainous regions of Central America. The Sierra Madre accounts for most of the vegetation in the high altitudes. On the Atlantic side, the humid forests almost reach the sea. The Sierra de las Minas, the most well conserved cloud forest in Central America, impedes the passage of the humid winds from the south, where a very rare and threatened ecoregion, the thorny thicket of the Valley of the Motagua, grows. The humid forest of Tehuantepec flourishes in the north, a place of virgin forests where buried traces of the old Mayan Civilization still remain.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Guatemala has a remarkable level of biological diversity, with 250 species of mammals, 463 of birds and 342 species of reptiles and amphibians registered. Of the 8681 species of well known plants, slightly more than 13% are locally endemic. In the central mountains, 70% of the vascular plants are endemic. The tropical forest is also very rich in species exclusive to the Mayan Forest.<\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-6ac314c e-con-full e-flex e-con e-child\" data-id=\"6ac314c\" data-element_type=\"container\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-419cd56 elementor-widget elementor-widget-image\" data-id=\"419cd56\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"image.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"685\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/beta10.technodreamcenter.com\/parkswatch.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/guatemala-national-context-685x1024.jpg\" class=\"attachment-large size-large wp-image-1198\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/beta10.technodreamcenter.com\/parkswatch.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/guatemala-national-context-685x1024.jpg 685w, https:\/\/beta10.technodreamcenter.com\/parkswatch.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/guatemala-national-context-201x300.jpg 201w, https:\/\/beta10.technodreamcenter.com\/parkswatch.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/guatemala-national-context-768x1147.jpg 768w, https:\/\/beta10.technodreamcenter.com\/parkswatch.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/guatemala-national-context-1028x1536.jpg 1028w, https:\/\/beta10.technodreamcenter.com\/parkswatch.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/guatemala-national-context-1371x2048.jpg 1371w, https:\/\/beta10.technodreamcenter.com\/parkswatch.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/guatemala-national-context-scaled.jpg 1714w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 685px) 100vw, 685px\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-b0e3a13 e-con-full e-flex e-con e-child\" data-id=\"b0e3a13\" data-element_type=\"container\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-674b272 elementor-widget elementor-widget-n-accordion\" data-id=\"674b272\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-settings=\"{&quot;default_state&quot;:&quot;expanded&quot;,&quot;max_items_expended&quot;:&quot;one&quot;,&quot;n_accordion_animation_duration&quot;:{&quot;unit&quot;:&quot;ms&quot;,&quot;size&quot;:400,&quot;sizes&quot;:[]}}\" data-widget_type=\"nested-accordion.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"e-n-accordion\" aria-label=\"Accordion.

Nearly 1.7% of forest was lost annually between 1990 and 2000, which has been explained by a sharp increase in population and, above all, by a very unstable sociopolitical climate. Currently, only 30% of the protected area in the national parks have a sufficient level of long-term stability. The management of the protected areas is still incipient, having few resources and scarce personnel. Some of the areas do not even have any type of border demarcation or measurements, as has happened with some 25 zones created in 1955. Official statistics show 99 areas in the country if buffer zones and multiple use zones are included as separate units.
