Tropical rainforests are getting cut down at a rate of 6000 trees an hour, this extremely rapid deforestation of rainforests has caused rainforests that were once 14% of earth’s surface all the way down to only 6%, at the rate we are chopping rainforests will be gone in approximately 40 years. So some of us might not witness the complete deforestation of rainforests but we must protect future generation from this controversial threat. Rainforests are the means of supplying us with oxygen. And the human body cannot survive longer than 4 minutes without…
Some factories pollute the air because of the smoke . and bad smoke can kill the trees.…

Deforestation is the cutting down of a large area of trees and the destruction of forests by people. Forests are what we call an exhaustible resource, one which can be used up if it is not used carefully. Over the last few decades, deforestation has threatened the rainforests with total extinction. To understand why deforestation is such an important issue, you first have to understand why trees matter. Trees improve in many ways the life of all species, including the human race. They help to maintain the Earth’s benevolent atmosphere, provide shelter for much biodiversity, but also have a high commercial value. As a consequence there is much critical debate around the causes and solutions for deforestation.…
Throughout 2015, more than four million Ohioans participated in more than 200 programs supported by Ohio Humanities. Programs included living history presentations, scholarly discussions, symposiums, exhibits, and book festivals. Highlights of 2015 included:…
Deforestation is an issue we need to fix. I would like to spend 100,000 dollars on deforestation because some of the trees that are being cut down are thousands of years old. “Any fool can destroy trees”(John Muir, “The American Forests,” Atlantic Monthly, August, 1897) Above all this, one fact remains the same, we need trees to live. If we destroy all the trees in the world, we are left with harsh living conditions for ourselves. Our forests should be preserved if we want a better nation.…
Cutting down the forests destroys other species’s habitats and causes erosion. Burning down the forests releases huge amount of CO2, which contributes to global warming and changes in global climate patterns. Burning coal for electricity is devastating. It also releases CO2 and greenhouse gases, which cause global warming, ice melting, and coral reef dying. Smoke from industries damages the ozone layer and causes acid rain.…
Deforestation is the third largest source of greenhouse gas emissions after coal and oil (WWF). It actually leads to more air pollution, in terms of carbon dioxide, than all the cars and trucks in the world (Scheer, Moss, 2012). Around 14 percent of the carbon emissions come from automobiles and trucks, while above 15 percent come from deforestation, according to World Carfree Network and WWF (Scheer, Moss, 2012); (WWF). Trees remove absorb carbon dioxide through the process of photosynthesis, therefore if forests are removed, the process of photosynthesis will slow down leading to higher levels of carbon dioxide. Later on, these amounts of carbon dioxide could have a negative effect on the Earth’s equilibrium (Hilderman, 2010). These effects could be present in the rising of sea levels, extreme climate change, increasing ocean acidification, etc. If people do not take action of deforestation, more than 200 tons of carbon will be in the atmosphere sooner than they expect (Scheer, Moss,…
Trees remove air pollution by lowering air temperature, through respiration, and by retaining particulates. Since rain forests are home to hundreds of thousands of trees and…
IN ORDER TO STOP THE deforestation OF trees FROM THE rainforest ECOSYSTEM, PEOPLE NEED TO STOP using as much paper products in their household. IN ORDER TO STOP THE deforestation OF trees FROM THE rainforest ECOSYSTEM, PEOPLE NEED TO STOP using as much paper products in their household. The first part the campaign has to make people feel ashamed and guilty for deforestation of tropical rainforest. The people cutting the trees make it seem like it is good for animals and plants, but really it’s damaging the ecosystem especially animals and plants. Some of the species can go endangered or extinct, like the Chimpanzee they live in the trees to escape their predators and for a home. At least 137 species of insects, plants, and animals are going extinct. Once people realize that deforestation is bad for the ecosystem. They will feel bad for doing that to animals and plants. They will reduce the use of paper products.…
People are the ones causing most pollution. People are the ones clearing the rainforests. People are also the ones dumping human and toxic wastes onto fertile lands and water. Animals and plants are not doing such things. People need to take responsibility for their actions, and replace what they have taken. If they clear trees, they should replant them. Most people do not see the long-term effects of clearing trees. If they do so, it reduces the amount of oxygen in the environment. We need oxygen to breathe, as do plants and animals.…
Every year an approximate 32 million acres of forest are destroyed which is equivalent to about 50,000 square miles (Kremen 1). These forests that are being torn down provide communities and wildlife with resources such as food, water, medicine, and shelter as well as breathable air. At the rate that forests are being cut down we are not able to replant them due to lack of funding and space. Many of the lands that were once forests are now homes to factories that encourage more deforestation. Although it may not seem relevant to some people of the United States, this country still benefits from rain forests around the world. The United State’s government does have some economic incentives for preserving forests in the U.S. and other countries,…
Lately there have been lots of people wasting and over using resources that seem abundant and they really don’t even realize it or having a voice to speak up and tell them that they’re wrong. Although you may think that you using 25 trees isn’t an issue because there are so many more all around the world but what if everyone used 25 trees at the same time? There wouldn’t be any left. No trees means no oxygen which means no us. Think Smart! The depletion of trees a natural resource was a key environmental issue in the lorax and Easters end and is still an issue in the world…
Every year over 30 million trees are cut down. This had made a lot of hardship for the animals and wildlife in the area. Every time a tree is cut that is one more homeless animal who will end up traveling closer to the city. First, these animals will wonder around trying to find food, once they can not they will turn to any and every source. This is when domesticated animals start to become infected with outside diseases from being bit by wild animals. This will spread locally and can end up with children sick due to being bit by an infected dog, and then you have one more problem to face. Second, most of today’s societies, wastes so much paper by using it carelessly and not recycling. Due to the increase in landfills being overfull, we are seeing more and more fire holes; as well these fire holes produce toxic fumes that are being breathed in by nearby neighbors. Third, the high demand for more paper has made most of the production so rapid, that we are destroying our forest quicker than we can make the product. Because the paper companies are so pushed on time to receive the product that they expect a certain number of trees or paper to be available for their customers. We use paper for everything from grocery bags, to billboards. Some rely more on paper and plastic cups for their business, than an entire school full of notebooks. In conclusion the effects of cutting down trees are a never ending struggle. Hopefully we will one day find another alternative material than…
