Exploration Seven: Amal


      
Photo of Before and After Deforestation

         One environmental issue that I think is extremely important is the matter of deforestation. Deforestation is clearing Earth's forests on a massive scale, often resulting in damage to the quality of the land. It is said that the world's rain forest could completely disappear in a hundred years in the rate that it is currently going. The problem that I really want to focus on is the fact that by cutting down the trees, they are hurting the animals and plants that are there. Forests are cut down for many reasons, but most of them are related to money or to people’s need to provide for their families. The biggest cause of deforestation is agriculture. Farmers cut forests to deliver more room for planting crops or scraping livestock. There are millions of habitats lost every year due to deforestation. They produce oxygen and spread the water cycle by letting loose water vapor into the atmosphere. Without the trees, forest lands can quickly become sterile land. This truly affects everyone because trees are so valuable that without them we have nothing. They produces so much that people don’t know and appreciate. And in the coming future, everyone will come to truly see how much damage they have done to Mother Nature. The advantages of deforestation are housing purposes and also building. And the disadvantage is that by burden so we set a course for the destruction of wildlife habitation. And it is increasing global warming around the world. All of these problems are mainly caused by big companies wanting more for their businesses. One best solution to deforestation is to stop the chopping of trees, by engaging a series of rules and laws to govern it. Secondly, Clear cutting of forests must be completely banned to preserve Mother Nature. This will totally result in the reduction of the forest cover. And it is a real solution and is very possible.

I do not think people realize what their damage is doing to mother nature by cutting down these trees. We are intervening in the natural resources we need to live.
