environmental issues with far-reaching penalties. From temperate forests to

tropical rainforests, deforestation has threatened the whole animal kingdom and has caused global warming as well.

of forests mainly due to human activity by the

process of logging or burning. Since the dawn of human civilization, a man has been clearing natural forests either to use trees or to use the cleared area for alternative uses. Acres of forest areas have been cut down for using the logs as fuel, clearing land for agriculture, oil extraction, dam construction, mining operations, and making space to accommodate the ever-increasing human population. In some studies it has been estimated that over 12 - 15 million hectares of forest are cleared each year. The effects of deforestation are large and if we don’t take action now to check deforestation, it will be too late to prevent this problem. But why does deforestation have such severe consequences? What is the damage caused by deforestation?

they absorb a large amount of the rainfall, thereby

stopping it from entering the inhabited areas and rivers. The cutting down of trees leads to disruption in the regular flow of water, thus causing floods in some areas, while drought in other areas.
 

the largest consequences of deforestation. Since there are fewer

trees left for absorbing greenhouse gases like carbon dioxide, these gases are released into the atmosphere, thereby increasing the temperature of the land and water. Also, deforestation leads to releasing of carbon that is stored in the trees in the form of carbon dioxide.
 

of the best gifts that God has given to

people. By consuming carbon dioxide and giving out oxygen, they make the earth a place worth living. Apart from that, they also provide us with food, in the form of fruits and vegetables. But now more and more of them are being cut, either for wood or to make way for houses or other structures. It is our responsibility to stop the deforestation taking place.

course of events, we have formulated 4 ways to

prevent deforestation by changing politics in our town in these ways:

restrict paper use in English classrooms by means of switching to online formative and summative quizzes and tests.

restrict paper use by means of switching to e-coursebooks.

participating in voluntary Earth Days in one’s town.
