Forests are among the top natural resources given to humankind. They provide us with both tangible and intangible resources without which the existence of many living things would be threatened

To fulfill the rising demands for housing, cultivation among other human needs forests are being destroyed at an alarming rate. To prevent ecological imbalance, plans need to be formulated to protect the forests and ensure a balance is maintained. By cutting down trees, animals are forced to venture into regions of human habitat endangering not only their lives but the humans safety. A long lasting solution needs to be therefore formulated for a permanent and sustainable solution.

Forests have been important since ancient times. Forests covered 60 percent of the earth but with the rising population, extensive areas of forests have been cleared to allow farming, roads, mining, and other activities to support and enhance human existence. In the present day only about 30 percent of forests, cover the earth

Forests play an important role in improving the quality of the environment. They help to keep the environment healthy, clean, and beautiful. Trees release oxygen in the air and take in carbon dioxide, which if let to accumulate, could turn fatal to the human existence. Without forests, rain water could ruin havoc. Trees prevent soil erosion and reduce floods.
