In our beautiful world any types of animals and humans can’t live without tree. Also tree can’t live without living beings. They both are related with each other because the oxygen we breathe in. It’s come from trees and the carbon dioxide which is used by trees for the process of photosynthesis, it is come from human beings and many other types of animals.
Trees are maintaining the ecological balance of the environment. It is says that a country needs 20% forest land to maintain its ecological balance. But in this century the trees are cutting down in a large number. We called it deforestation.
Causes of deforestation:
There are many causes of deforestation. For getting more space for more houses and cultivation people are clearing forest land. Nowadays the price of wood is very high, that’s why many people cut down trees to draw a huge amount of profit. Some people think that trees are not useful to us and they cut it.
Effect of deforestation:
Deforestation has a long-term bad effect on our ecological system.This disturbs our ecological balance. The existence of birds and animals are threatened due to deforestation.
Due to deforestation carbon dioxide increases. As a result, global warming occurs. Today due to global warming the sea level is rising and many parts of the world are going to be engulfed. On the other hand, new areas of the world are turning into desert as an immediate effect of global warming. We may face the problem of flood, soil erosion and drought etc.
How we prevent deforestation:
We can take many measures steps to prevent deforestation. Tree plantation programme should be expanded to the remote corner of the country. The government should introduce more T.V. and radio programmers on the subject of the danger of deforestation. Besides, the conscious people of the society can influence the common people to plant more and more trees. They can be planted beside the roads, in and around educational institutions and in any suitable open space. We should take care of trees for our own interest.
