Answer:

  • Reforestation is the natural or intentional restocking of existing forests and woodlands that have been depleted, usually through deforestation.
  • Deforestation is the clearing of virgin forests, or intentional destruction or removal of trees and other vegetation for agricultural, commercial, housing or firewood use without replanting and without allowing time for the forest to regenerate itself.
  • Afforestation is the establishment of a forest or stand of trees in an area where there was no previous tree cover

Deforestation is chopping down of trees or clearing of natural forests. Deforestation is usually carried out to fulfill human needs; to make way for housing projects or to carry out agriculture.

Reforestation is planting of trees in regions where trees have been planted before. These trees could be in the form of natural forests, cleared due to deforestation. Reforestation aims to replenish the ‘tree’ resource of those natural forests.Afforestation is the process of planting trees and plants in barren lands devoid of any trees previously.

Afforestation is practiced to compensate for loss of trees due to deforestation being carried out around our planet.
