We must conserve our forests for the following reasons:

(a) Forests produce a large number of products of commercial use such as timber, raw materials for the manufacture of paper, bidi leaves, gums, resins, essential oils. Thus, forests helps in economic development.

(b) One of the main aims of conservations is to try and preserve the biodiversity we have inherited because loss of biodiversity may lead to a loss of ecological stability.

Two causes of deforestation are:

(i) Indiscriminate felling (i.e., cutting) of trees for the purpose of timber, fuel and individual demand of wood.

(ii) Overgrazing by a large livestock population.

Forests are very important for us please help us in providing many of our requirements and also provides us the life giving substance that is Oxygen

Two causes for deforestation are
- increasing population
There is a ever increase in population which is not a good thing as the increasing population needs to stay and for that purpose urbanisation is taking place for which the forest are degraded on large scale

-industrialisation
as many of our industries need trees as raw material so they cut forest at large scale
