Development (UNCED) held in Rio de Janerio‚ Brazil‚ 3 to 14 June 1992. Why is it important? Deforestation is happening on a massive scale‚ often resulting in damage to the quality of the land. Forests still cover about 30 percent of the world’s land area‚ but swaths the size of Panama are lost each and every year. The world’s rain forests could completely vanish in a hundred years at the current rate of deforestation. Environmental pollution due to lack of proper disposal of wastes ‚ emissions from automobiles

Deforestation is indeed the primary threat to the orangutan‚ a species of great ape known for its keen intelligence and the fact that it’s the largest animal to live primarily in trees. A 2007 assessment by the United Nations Environment Program (UNEP) predicts that orangutans will be virtually eliminated in the wild within two decades if current deforestation trends continue. The great reddish-brown apes are native to the tropical rainforests of Indonesia and Malaysia‚ which are being cut down rapidly

Global Warming: Glaciers are melting‚ sea levels are rising‚ cloud forests are drying‚ and wildlife is scrambling to keep pace. It’s becoming clear that humans have caused most of the past century’s warming by releasing heat-trapping gases as we power our modern lives. Called greenhouse gases‚ their levels are higher now than in the last 650‚000 years. We call the result global warming. The "greenhouse effect" is the warming that happens when certain gases in Earth’s atmosphere trap heat. These

warming. Therefore‚ global warming can be defined as the effect that increased greenhouse gases have on the earth’s atmosphere. The increase of greenhouse gases are the result of two economical factors: the burning of fossil fuels for energy‚ and deforestation for industrialization. The first factor contributes to the majority of the expelled greenhouse gases - that is: The Burning of Fossil Fuels As globalization spreads and increases industry‚ it also increases the deposit of polluting gases
