Answer:

“A nation that destroys its soils destroys itself. Forests are the lungs of our land, purifying the air and giving fresh strength to our people"

about 540 years, Forest covers about 1/3rd of the Earth's land surface, which equates to around 4 billion hectares. At a rate of 7.3 million hectares, we will have grubbed up all our forests in about 540 years time. Phew! We have bought ourselves a bit of time. When we destroy forests, we add to climate change because forests trap carbon and help stabilise the world's climate. When forests are trashed, the carbon trapped in trees, their roots and the soil is released into the atmosphere. Deforestation accounts for up to 20% of all carbon emissions. What will happen if the forests on earth disappear?

Life could not exist on Earth without trees because they produce most of the oxygen that humans and wildlife breathe. Trees absorb carbon dioxide from the atmosphere and release oxygen using the process of photosynthesis. There would also be no rain without trees since trees absorb water from the soil and release it through evapotranspiration. Water vapour released through evapotranspiration is the major mechanism by which air is remoisten. Forests act as giant air filters for the world. Trees purify the air by absorbing pollutants such as sulfur dioxide and nitrogen dioxide, reducing pollution. Trees also help prevent topsoil erosion because they break the force of wind and rain on soil, their roots bind the soil, and their decayed, falling leaves are absorbed by the earth and enrich the soil. Trees conserve rainwater and reduce water runoff and sediment deposit after storms. Additionally, trees provide a supply of lumber, seeds, and fruit. Further, dead trees that fall and get buried in the soil eventually provide fossil fuels such as coal and petroleum products, among other things. Trees can also act as noise filters. Trees muffle urban clamour almost as well as walls do. Trees planted at strategic locations can decrease loud noises from airports and highways. Forests are one of the Earth’s greatest natural resources. There is a reason why we often figuratively speak of ‘the tree of life’, forests are key to supporting life on Earth. Eight thousand years ago, half of the Earth’s land surface was covered by forests or wooded areas. Today, these areas represent less than one third. Forests are home to 80% of the world’s land-based biodiversity and billions of dollars worth of medicinal plants are harvested from tropical forests every year. In addition, 1.6 billion people depend on them to some extent for their livelihoods. Forests are one of the Earth’s greatest natural resources.
