Keeping forests intact also helps prevent floods and drought by regulating regional rainfall. And because many indigenous and forest peoples rely on tropical forests for their livelihoods, investments in reducing deforestation provide them with the resources they need for sustainable development without deforestation.

Answer:
Deforestation refers to the cutting, clearing, and removal of rainforest or related ecosystems into less bio-diverse ecosystems such as pasture, cropland, or plantations.
Deforestation should be discouraged.
Explanation:
- Deforestation broadly includes not only the conversion of forest land to non-forest land but also degradation or denudation that reduces forest quality, the density and structure of the trees, the ecology, the biomass of plants and animals, the species diversity and the genetic diversity.
Reasons why deforestation should be discouraged:
- A decrease in vegetation/greenery doesn't simply increment contamination levels yet in addition upsets the biological equilibrium on Earth.
- The deficiency of trees brings about the annihilation of untamed life. It likewise brings about the deficiency of their territory.
- Deforestation has seriously jeopardized the whole environment.
- Increase in carbon dioxide (CO₂) fixation in the climate.
- Deforestation brings about diminished precipitation, expanded dry season, more blazing summer and colder winter.
- Soil is exposed to insolation, dries up and gets eroded by wind and water.
- Timber and fuel wood availability have been drastically reduced. Forest products like resin tannin, gums, and latex may not be available.
- Loss of forest leads to soil erosion and finally, desertification occurs which is of no use Moist and fertile land of forests will be converted to deserts due to decreased amount of rainfall and no floods.
- Deforestation would result in the loss of biodiversity and germplasm having a devastating effect on ecological balance.
Therefore, because of these consequences, deforestation should be discouraged.
