Question:

List four threats to forest resources.

Answer:

Our forest resources face a number of threats in the form of:

  1. Deforestation: Much of the forest land has been converted into farmland in order to provide food for a rapidly increasing population.
  2. Wanton destruction and depletion of forest resources for timber and wood.
  3. Overgrazing by animals that has caused destruction of seedlings.
  4. Millions of acres of forest are destroyed by forest fires, many of which occur due to human carelessness.
