Even with the legend I can’t tell whether the light or dark part of the lungs represent remaining forest. Is all white 100% remaining forest or all dark?

Thanks for the feedback. Dark represents forest remaining, white represents amount of forest that is gone

Natural forest remaining would differ from net loss in tree cover as that only counts for trees present before 2001, not new trees planted?
