Consequences of deforestation
Answers
Answer:
Consequences of deforestation
☆ It increases the temperature and pollution level on the earth.
☆ It decreases the level of oxygen and increases the level of carbon dioxide.
☆ It reduces the rainfall and fertility of the soil.
☆ It leads to global warming as increased level of carbon dioxide traps more heat from sun.
☆ It leads to drought as the increased temperature disturbs the water cycle and reduces rainfall.
☆ It increases the chances of soil erosion, as with the loss of protective cover of vegetation, the soil gets easily eroded with fast currents of water and storms.
☆It reduces the level of groundwater, because in the absence of tree cover the seepage of water is reduced and thus groundwater does not get replenished.
☆ It leads to desertification, because in the absence of trees, soil erosion occurs more rapidly exposing the lower hard and rocky layers. This soil has less humus and is less fertile. In this way, fertile land gets converted into deserts.
