The Deforestation

It is a process usually caused by human action, in which the forest area is destroyed.1 2 It is directly caused by the action of people on nature, mainly due to logging or burning by the timber industry, as well as for obtaining land for agriculture, mining and livestock.

Causes of deforestation

  - To leave land available for housing and the construction of housing developments: Trees are cut for road construction. The overpopulation also affects directly since more land is needed to build houses and cities.

  - To use wood to create commercial items, such as paper, furniture and houses: Wood-based industries such as paper, matches, furniture, etc. They also need a considerable amount of wood supply.

  - To create space for agricultural and livestock use: Due to the excessive growth of the demand for food products, a large number of trees were eliminated for cultivation and livestock.


  - Forest fires: Hundreds of trees are lost each year due to forest fires in various parts of the world. This happens due to summers that are warmer and winters softer.

Consequences of deforestation

- The loss of biodiversity.

  - Desertification

  - Floods

  - Disappearance of tropical forests:


  - Climate change

Solutions for deforestation

The fastest solution to deforestation would be to simply stop cutting trees. Although deforestation rates have declined somewhat in recent years, financial realities make it unlikely that they will stop cutting.

A more viable solution is to manage forest resources carefully by cutting and replanting

Deforestation can also be counteracted by raising awareness and awareness. Awareness and educational campaigns can be a simple, but viable solution.


 Another strategy is the use of recycled paper, plastic and wood products, as well as the adoption of responsible consumption. This means that there will be less dependence on natural resources and trees.
