      Not for the whole world, but someone recently posted this map of Germany here:

      Source: https://x.com/cvictordus/status/1791961219143766322

      From top to bottom, left to right, the bigger areas say:

      • Energiepflanzen → plants grown for generating electricity
      • Vegetation → vegetation, just the random plants around the place presumably
      • Pflanzliche Ernährung → plant-based food
      • Viehfutter → forage, i.e. plants grown to feed animals (which will mostly be used for animal-based food).
      • Siedlung + Industrie → industry and the places they build to house workers
      • Wohnen → housing
      • Verkehr → traffic (presumably parking + roads etc.)
      • Rest → remaining, unclassified areas
      • Wasser → water
      • Wald → forest

      So, we do have some areas where animals can hang out, mainly forests, but as the map you linked points out, essentially none of it is wilderness either. The forests are commercially used and suffer from monospecies trees.

      Holy shit. No wonder the ecosystem is going to shit. We’re so fucking greedy. The red spots look like an infection.
