Write an article on deforestation.
Answers
Answer:
The destruction of forests is known as deforestation. By felling trees forest cover is destroyed. When trees are cut on a large scale to clear a large area of forest cover many trees are lost. This man-made activity has deleterious effects on the environment and ecology. Deforestation has led to many ecologically damaging outcomes affecting the flora and fauna of the area, and disturbing the food chain and the hydrological cycle. The disturbances created to the ecosystem due to deforestation are both short term and long term consequences.
Deforestation causes many wildlife species that live in the trees and the forest to lose their home. There is also a disturbance to the amount of rainfall in the area. Herbivorous wildlife that depends on trees for their food loses their source of food. Humans also lose their food source and livelihoods that are dependent on the forest. Global warming and climate change are also the fallout of deforestation.
