DEFORESTATION-EXPLANATION

Deforestation is caused by men cutting down trees with chainsaws.  Disease and fire also cause deforestation.

In 100 Years, there will be no Rainforest! Now there is less than 10 percent left. Deforestation is when forests are converted for other causes by cutting down the trees to clear the land for other people to use. 

With 7 billion people on the planet, we need more land to build more buildings, raise cows and lots more and grow food. 

The loss of trees and other plant growth, can cause climate change, the start of a desert, oil, fewer crops, flooding, increased greenhouse gases in the atmosphere.

To stop deforestation we need to stop cutting down trees and plant more seeds to grow more trees.
