Question

What is the negative impact of destroying a Forrest to put up a building?

Answer 1

Deforestation can have a negative impact on the environment. The most dramatic impact is a loss of habitat for millions of species. Eighty percent of Earth's land animals and plants live in forests, and many cannot survive the deforestation that destroys their homes. Deforestation also drives climate change.

Answer 2

Deforestation is the permanent removal of trees to make room for something besides forest. This can include clearing the land for agriculture or grazing, or using the timber for fuel, construction or manufacturing.  

Forests cover more than 30% of the Earth's land surface, according to the World Wildlife Fund. These forested areas can provide food, medicine and fuel for more than a billion people. Worldwide, forests provide 13.4 million people with jobs in the forest sector, and another 41 million people have jobs related to forests.  

Forests are a resource, but they are also large, undeveloped swaths of land that can be converted for purposes such as agriculture and grazing.  

Negative impact:-

1. Soil Erosion
2. Water Cycle Disruption
3. Greenhouse Gas Emissions
4. Biodiversity Losses
