What is deforestation? How can we conseve it
Answers
DEFORESTATION: Deforestation, clearance, clearcutting or clearing is the removal of a forest or stand of trees from land which is then converted to a non-forest use. Deforestation can involve conversion of forest land to farms, ranches, or urban use. The most concentrated deforestation occurs in tropical rainforests.
CONSERVING TREES: Trees clean the air, soil and water, making the earth a livable place. They are so integral to human well being that just living close to trees makes us healthier and happier. If you want to save trees, you can help by protecting those that grow in your own neighborhood, and planting more when you see trees cut down. Efficient use of paper products is important, too. If you’re truly passionate about saving trees, consider getting involved in an organization working to save the world’s remaining forests.
Answer:
Forests are logged to supply timber for wood and paper products, and to clear land for crops, cattle, and housing. Other causes of deforestation include mining and oil exploitation, urbanization, acid rain and wildfires.
