Definition of Deforestation:

Deforestation, clearance, clearcutting, or clearing is the removal of a forest or stand of trees from land that is then converted to non-forest use. Deforestation can involve the conversion of forest land to farms, ranches, or urban use.*

Reasons of Deforestation:

Deforestation is occurring everywhere in the world for various reasons that vary from place to place and region to region. Huge spaces of rainforests in various tropical nations have been annihilated to part of make different types of oil extraction, different types of plantation etc. The expanding worldwide interest for wood items has increased the risk of many ancient forests around the world, regardless of whether it is for paper items, furniture or fuel.

Finishing deforestation is the most obvious opportunity we need to settle our environment, save natural life species and also protect our well-being. One should protect trees regardless of anything, it should be a mutual responsibility of every person.

What can we do?

– One should plant trees or plants as such they can.

– One should use fewer paper products, as paper is extracted from trees.

– One should recycle paper and cardboard.

– One should try using recyclable products.

– One should avoid buying woods.

– One should practice eco-friendly foresting.

– One should avoid cutting trees for residential use.

– One should avoid using a lot of Palm oil.

– One should avoid using products that emit a lot of gasses that are harmful to the environment.

– One should use only sustainable wood products.

– One should avoid purchasing products that cause a lot of harm to the environment.

– One should promote organic products, which cause less harm to the environment.

– One should also try to donate money to an organization that promotes afforestation.

Deforestation is defined as the large-scale removal of trees from forests for the facilitation of other human activities. Trees, as we know, are an indispensable part of our biodiversity. Without trees, there is no life!

Cutting down trees to use that land for our own needs is termed deforestation. It mainly affects the ecosystem, causes disturbance in the water cycle, damages the natural habitat of other living beings, and induces soil erosion. Trees are the foremost reason for our living. In India, approximately 31% of the land is covered with forests. They are our principal source of oxygen, food, water, and medicines. Also, they play a major role in the water cycle by adding water to the atmosphere through the process of transpiration. They also absorb greenhouse gases, act as a carbon storehouse, thus limiting climate change. They even try to prevent soil erosion by providing mechanical support to the soil. They also try to protect our Mother Earth from some natural calamities by acting as a floodwater sink.

If they are providing us so much selflessly, we should also do our part by planting more trees and not cutting them! We should plant more and more trees. Like the way we celebrate our birthdays, we should also include one activity of planting a tree on that day to give back something to nature. Also, we should use recycled products like books, paper bags, etc. By using more of these items, we are continuously reducing the demand for timber in the environment. Also, we should lower the use of palm oil in our lives. The majority of the palm oil is grown in recently cleared lands. We should, for a fact, know that the world’s palm oil production comes from Indonesia and Malaysia, where the virgin rainforest is generally cleared at a disturbing rate to make way for new plantations.

To avoid deforestation, we should plant more trees in our neighborhoods. Also, there is a need to spread awareness of planting more trees.
