Deforestation:

Deforestation, means "clearance or removal of forest" or area covered by trees where land is thereafter used for commercial purposes.

  • The examples of deforestation included conversion of forest land for construction of farms or urban use.
  • In temperate climate, "natural regeneration of forest"will not occur in presence of disturbance whether it is natural or anthropogenic.
  • Deforestation occurs because of many reason, one of which is trees being cut down for commercial or economic purposes.
  • Trees can be cut down and utilized as fuel (in form of "charcoal or timber") while cleared land is used for grazing purposes for livestock.
  • The land is used for plantation of commoditized crops.
  • Cutting down trees, without proper reforestation can result in loss of habitat, leading to loss of biodiversity further leading to an imbalance in ecosystem.
  • This can lead to disturbed climatic conditions and seasonal cycles.

Importance of forests:

  • Forests prevent soil erosion and keep soil pollution in check.
  • Trees absorb carbon dioxide leading to a decrease in air pollution.
  • It also produces mass amounts of oxygen as by-product of photosynthesis.
  • Hence, deforestation should be prevented to maintain "ecological balance" and keep the survival of the living organisms intact.
