Deforestaion

The clearing away of trees, known as deforestation, affects our planet in a variety of ways.

• It destorys forest habitsts and kills the animals living there.Two-thirds of all species on Earth need forests for shelter or food.
• The lower number of trees to convert carbon dioxide into oxygen contributes to global warming.
• Trees give off water vapour,so the fewer trees there are, the less water there is in the atmosphere.
• Without tree roots to hold the soil together, there is an increased chance of soil erosion, flooding, and landslides.
