Hey.
Here is the answer.

Ideas to slow down the rate of deforestation :
1. Stop cutting trees and start convincing peoples around you not to cut tress. Use alternative resources for timber and tree products.
2. Start planting trees. It gives beauty to nature and health to you. That’s the sum of the domestic campaign so far. Soon, all the neighbors will be carbon copying each other.
3. Also stop printing and go paperless.Whether at home or at work, many of us still have that nasty, lazy habit of not learning to utilize computer files and folders properly. So instead, we print. And, you know what; many of us do this when we think others are not looking. So, there you go. You know it’s wrong.
4. When shopping, move towards buying recycled products mainly. Most recycled items do not derive from areas that have been cleared of natural and rainforests.
5. When at home, recycle as much as possible. By extension, you are continuing with your proactive exercise in diverting the demand for clearing land.
6. In the kitchen, cut down on your meat intake and eat as many vegetarian meals as possible. It’s a best practice and a healthy one on top of it too. Because it remains problematic and time-consuming trying to source meat products that are entirely devoid of being harvested on land that once brimmed with trees.
7. Speaking of meat, do not buy meat products sourced from land where forests have been cleared. At this stage, if you’re prepared to go the whole hog, if you will, you’ll need to spend extra care and time perusing the product’s labels. Also, you’re going to need to extend your knowledge on the multinational companies that produce these pre-packaged supermarket items.
8. Simply buy organic products . But avoid the multinationals that have pretentiously jumped onto the organic bandwagon, mainly to drive sales.
9. Palm oil is a type of edible vegetable oil that is derived from the palm fruit, grown on the African oil palm tree. According to the World Wildlife Fund, an area the equivalent size of 300 football fields of rainforest is cleared each hour to make way for palm oil production.
Unless there’s concrete proof that it’s been sustainably produced, do not buy palm oil at all.
10. Do not use firewood to heat up your fireplaces. It takes few hours to burn the firewood but takes years to grow a single tree. Live in such a way that your activities cause minimum impact on the environment
11. Encourage people to live in a way that doesn’t hurt environment. Try to bring in more people in your community and let them know about how trees are being destroyed at an alarming rate and what steps we need to take to minimize our carbon footprinton the environment.
12. Returning to the meat and grocery shopping list, do not buy anything from large, multinationals that are actively or indirectly involved or responsible for the clearing of forest land.
13. Support companies that produce products by causing minimal harm to the environment.
14. In the process, you also need to practice what you preach; both publicly and within the confines of your home where no-one can see you. It’s hard and it will take time. But, getting used to the idea and you’re already off to a good start.
15. Becoming the dearly beloved treehugger does not end with merely hugging a tree a day and planting a few trees every other year. You still need to become actively involved. Your research will lead you to the world’s most prominent eco-NGOs specifically focused on campaigning and working against deforestation. Also, it’s quite easy to become a member too.
16. Work with NGO’s to establish parks to protect rainforests and wildlife. Become directly involved in more ways than one by signing up as a member of Friends of the Earth.
17. On a much larger, political and/or corporate scale, it would be ideal to become a serving member of the World Wide Fund for Nature.
