forest reduced the effect of climate change
Answers
Explanation:
Good morning every one Honourable cheif guest respected principal beloved teachers and all my dear friends.I am very happy to participate on this occasion.so this international days if forests.iam Xx of class 10 going to give a speech on forest reduced the effect of climatic changes
primary contributor to climate change.
[2] Land use changes, especially in the form of deforestation,
[3] are the second largest anthropogenic source of atmospheric carbon dioxide emissions, after fossil fuel combustion.
[4] Greenhouse gases are emitted during combustion of forest biomass and decomposition of remaining plant material and soil carbon. Global models and national greenhouse gas inventories give similar results for deforestation emissions.
[3] As of 2019, deforestation is responsible for about 11% of global greenhouse gas emissions.
[5]Peatland degradation also emits GHG. Growing forests are a carbon sink with additional potential to mitigate the effects of climate change. Some of the effects of climate change, such as more wildfires, may increase deforestation.
[6]Deforestation comes in many forms: wildfire, agricultural clearcutting, livestock ranching, and logging for timber, among others. The vast majority of agricultural activity resulting in deforestation is subsidized by government tax revenue.
[7] Forests cover 31% of the land area on Earth and annually 75,700 square kilometers (18.7 million acres) of the forest is lost.
[8] Mass deforestation continues to threaten tropical forests, their biodiversity and the ecosystem services they provide. The main area of concern of deforestation is in tropical rain forests since they are home to the majority of the planet's biodiversity.
Thank you for giving this wonderful opportunity.I thank all my teachers who supported me to this. thank you so much
Answer:
Climate change is one of the greatest threats humankind has known. Forests can be part of the solution.
Between 30 November and 11 December 2015, world leaders gathered in Paris for one of the biggest climate conferences of all times. COP21 marked a defining moment for the global community to come together and collectively show their resolve towards “changing climate change”. The deal reached delivered much of what WWF asked for - the explicit mention of forests in the agreement sent an indisputable signal that actions to halt deforestation and forest degradation will have to be a part of high level domestic political agendas, and no longer a marginal topic.
Forests and climate are intrinsically linked: forest loss and degradation is both a cause and an effect of our changing climate.
The agriculture, forestry and land-use sectors account for about a quarter of all global greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions and are the largest sources after cars, trucks, trains, planes and ships combined. By reducing forest loss, we can reduce carbon emissions and fight climate change. It's that simple.
As deforestation and forest degradation have such a significant impact on climate change, reducing forest loss can have multiple benefits for ecosystems and people. These include cutting greenhouse gas emissions, sequestering carbon, providing other ecosystems services, and maintaining intact, functioning forests that have the best chance of withstanding climate change.
