2. WHAT IS DEFORESTATION?
• It’s an action carried out by
humans, in which the forest
surfaces are destroyed or
depleted, generally with the aim of
allocating the land to another
activity. this could be crops or
livestock and in some cases this
could be illegal
3. ADVANTAGES AND DISADVANTAGES
• This activity has more disadvantages than advantages but it depends on the
situation.
When this activity is with the intention of generating land can be dangerous
‘cause destroy forest ecosystems, air quality worsens, infers with the water cycle,
remove carbon deposits contributing to global warming among others.
And when it is to avoid damage from poorly supported trees, Provide sunlight to
younger trees or Provide lumber for multiple purposes it’s ok.
4. HOW TO AVOID DEFORESTATION?
• 1. Eliminate subsidies for forms of agriculture that damage forests
• 2. Invest in indigenous communities
• 3. Talk about the causes of deforestation
• 4. Demonstrate that forest conservation and economic development are not
mutually exclusive
5. SUMMARY AND PERSONAL OPINION
• It is clear that deforestation is bad
for us and for the planet and that it
should be avoided at all costs to
prolong the life of the planet due to
its multiple damages. And in
conclusion I am against this and
would only allow it if it was done for
the causes in favor mentioned
above.
