Deforestation – Afforestation
Deforestation and afforestation are two very important terms that decide the future of our upcoming generations and also have a very deep impact on our environment. We are all aware of the increasing environmental issues that are causing havoc and thus are putting the human race in danger. Behind all these environmental issues, Deforestation plays a key role, and afforestation is an answer to all the problems related to the environment out there.
Deforestation is the practice of cutting down trees for various human needs. Deforestation is increasing at an alarming rate. Huge forests are being cleared to transform the space into developed cities, Trees are being cut down to use the wood to make furniture, papers, and many other goods. Trees are being cut randomly without many trees being planted, and this has already turned into a global issue. On the other hand, Afforestation is the practice of planting trees and thus making our environment healthy.
Deforestation causes many harms to us. It reduces the supply of oxygen, the most important element for sustaining life, also it hampers the rain cycle, and is even the greatest reason for soil erosion. It’s high time for us to put a ban on deforestation and practice afforestation.
