However‚ deforestation activity by irresponsible people has led to imbalanced ecosystem. First of all‚ the effect of deforestation is pollution especially water pollution. This problem occurred when people often cut down the trees illegally. So‚ there are no roots to hold and prevent the soil from fall down. The soil that

Deforestation Mitigation Strategies Tropical rainforests cover approximately thirty percent of the earth’s land area‚ around 2.5 million square miles‚ the size of the lower 48 states‚ despite the fact 80‚000 acres (32‚000) hectares are destroyed per day for economic reasons. Tropical rainforests are biodiversity hotspots. Rainforests are carbon sinks absorbing about half the carbon dioxide humans release into the atmosphere. Continued deforestation will affect the entire world with the ecological

Deforestation is simply the means of removing trees and forests‚ generally through burning or cutting. In this paper I will cover South America where deforestation mainly takes place as needs in agriculture rise requiring more land. In the tropical regions there are mainly three types of deforestation that take place. Firstly‚ in poor economy countries such as South America‚ poor citizens turn to agriculture for feeding their families. Farmers use agricultural settlements and then cut down acres

In Brazil‚ the deforestation of the Amazon rainforest is a very big issue. In this report I will explain the connections of the deforestation to the Brazilian environment and economic development‚ and for extra reference I will relate these to the included map. The deforestation of the Amazon seems to be necessary to economic development in Brazil. Along with this‚ sadly the Amazon rainforest is being demolished at a alarming rate and it is causing major environmental issues including loss of bio-diversity
