Deforestation involves the permanent removal of forests for non-forest use such as agriculture and development. It has significant negative environmental impacts including soil erosion, decreased rainfall, loss of biodiversity, and global climate change. Deforestation in India is largely driven by timber extraction and agriculture, resulting in the loss of 3.4 million hectares of forest between 1951-1970. Potential solutions include afforestation, reforestation, use of alternative energy sources, and implementing laws and regulations to control deforestation.
This ppt is related to the deforestation, which hampers our environment and ecosystem, leading to some bad consequences of global warming in our world and it is a cause of concern in current scenario.
"Reversing Deforestation is complicated, planting a tree is simple."
Do you know about Deforestation?
Deforestation refers to the decrease in forest areas across the world that are lost for other uses such as agricultural croplands, urbanization or mining activities. It has been negatively affecting natural ecosystems, biodiversity and the climate.
CAUSES OF DEFORESTATION
Agriculture
Commercial or industrial agriculture cause around 40% of forest loss – in the search for space to grow food, fibers or biofuel (such as palm oil, maize, cotton, sugar cane and many more)
Forest fires
We lose large number of trees each year due to fires in the forest. These Fires, whether causes by man or nature results in huge loss of forest cover.
Urbanization
With the expansion of cities and also due to population growth, more land is needed to establish housing and settlements. Therefore forest land is reclaimed.
Effects of Deforestation
Increase in Global Warming
Trees play a major role in controlling global warming. The trees utilize greenhouse gases, restoring the balance in the atmosphere. With constant deforestation, the ratio of greenhouse gases in the atmosphere has increased.
Floods
When it rains, trees absorb and store a large amount of water with the help of their roots. When they are cut down, the flow of water is disrupted, and the soil loses its ability to retain water. It leads to floods in some areas and droughts in others.
Wildlife Extinction
Due to the massive felling down of trees, various animal species are lost. They lose their habitat and also forced to move to a new location. Many of them are even pushed to extinction.
How to Reduce and Prevent Deforestation?
Plant a Tree where you can
The most straightforward personal strategy to fight against deforestation is to plant a tree. Planting a tree could be considered a lifelong investment into the environment and your good mental health.
Educate Others
Still, many are entirely unaware of the global warming problem we’re facing. Educate your friends, family, and community by sharing the deforestation facts, and its causes and effects. You can make an impact!
Use less paper
Since the industry has such a high need for wood, it should come as no surprise that some part of the timber originates from illegal logging.
Recycle paper and cardboard
Imagine how many trees you can save and how much good they perform for the quality of our lives by recycling all your paper.
If we can understand what forests can do for us,
We can stop deforestation.

In recent years, it is no doubt that in India, where on one side pollution is increasing day by day due to accumulation of organic waste and on the other side there is a great shortage of organic manure.
It has been estimated that India, as a whole, generates as much as 25 million tonnes of urban solid waste of diverse composition per year. Solid waste comprises of both organic and inorganic matter.
Under the present condition of environmental degradation, vermicomposting technology is the best way to meet all the requirements of the society. This is a process of recycling trash/agricultural wastes in an efficient and eco-friendly manner in order to produce quality compost.
Organic wastes can be broken down and fragmented rapidly by earthworms, resulting in a stable non-toxic material with good structure, which has a potentially high economic value and also acts as a soil conditioner for plant growth.
It is a type of composting in which worms eat and metabolize organic matter that comprises to a better end product known as Vermicast (commonly called as BLACK GOLD) which has a stuff of nutrients that can be directly incorporated into the soil to help with plant fertilization, soil enrichment and soil stability.From a social point of view, organic fertilizers will:
Improve the social status of the individuals and the community.
Create motivation for people to live in the countryside by providing job
opportunities and business plans.
From a hygienic point of view, organic fertilizers will:
Produce chemical-free crops which will improve people's health.
Reduce the danger of lung diseases and other diseases resulting from burning the organic wastes in the field.EPIGEIC EARTHWORMS:
Earthworms of this group cannot make burrows in the soil. They can only move through crevices of the surface. They feed exclusively on decomposing organic wastes.
ENDOGEIC EARTHWORMS:
They are subsoil dwellers. Secretions of body wall of earthworms cement and smoothen the walls of the burrows and protect the wall from collapsing easily. They move below 30cm or more in the soil
ANECIC EARTHWORMS:
They are found in the soil, which is not frequently disturbed. They make very complicated burrows in the sol and they firmly pack their burrow walls with their castings. The Anecic earthworms like Epigeic earthworms are commonly found in temperate countries.Vermicompost is an excellent soil additive made up of digested compost. Worm castings are much higher in nutrients and microbial life and therefore, are considered as a higher value product. Worm castings contain up to 5 times the plant available nutrients. It not only adds microbial organisms and nutrients that have long lasting residual effects, it also modulates structure to the existing soil, increases water retention capacity. Vermicompost contains an average of 1.5% - 2.2% N, 1.8% - 2.2% P and 1.0% - 1.5% K. The organic carbon is ranging from 9.15 to 17.98 and contains micronutrients Nitrogen, phosphorus, Potassium..

"Understanding the Carbon Cycle: Processes, Human Impacts, and Strategies for...MMariSelvam4
The carbon cycle is a critical component of Earth's environmental system, governing the movement and transformation of carbon through various reservoirs, including the atmosphere, oceans, soil, and living organisms. This complex cycle involves several key processes such as photosynthesis, respiration, decomposition, and carbon sequestration, each contributing to the regulation of carbon levels on the planet.
Human activities, particularly fossil fuel combustion and deforestation, have significantly altered the natural carbon cycle, leading to increased atmospheric carbon dioxide concentrations and driving climate change. Understanding the intricacies of the carbon cycle is essential for assessing the impacts of these changes and developing effective mitigation strategies.
By studying the carbon cycle, scientists can identify carbon sources and sinks, measure carbon fluxes, and predict future trends. This knowledge is crucial for crafting policies aimed at reducing carbon emissions, enhancing carbon storage, and promoting sustainable practices. The carbon cycle's interplay with climate systems, ecosystems, and human activities underscores its importance in maintaining a stable and healthy planet.
In-depth exploration of the carbon cycle reveals the delicate balance required to sustain life and the urgent need to address anthropogenic influences. Through research, education, and policy, we can work towards restoring equilibrium in the carbon cycle and ensuring a sustainable future for generations to come.

UNDERSTANDING WHAT GREEN WASHING IS!.pdfJulietMogola
Many companies today use green washing to lure the public into thinking they are conserving the environment but in real sense they are doing more harm. There have been such several cases from very big companies here in Kenya and also globally. This ranges from various sectors from manufacturing and goes to consumer products. Educating people on greenwashing will enable people to make better choices based on their analysis and not on what they see on marketing sites.

Control of Deforestation
3. Whatis Deforestation?
Deforestation is the permanent removal of forests and other wooded area for
non-forest use.
Examples of deforestation includes conversion of forestland to farm or urban
use.
4. Causes of Deforestation
1) Shifting cultivation:-
Most of the clearing of forest is done for agriculture purposes.
Farmer cut down trees or burn it and start agriculture.
Intensive or modern agriculture destroy the forest on a large scale.
5. Causes of Deforestation
2) Commercial logging:-
It involves cutting of trees for sale as timber or plup.
Logging roads enable people to access the interiors of the forest ,which result
in deforestation.
6. Causes of Deforestation
3) Mining and Dams:-
Mining, industrial development and hydroelectric power plant projects are
also causes of deforestation.
In Brazil, the grande carajas project occupies 90000km^2.
7. Causes of Deforestation
Deforestation also occurs due to overgrazing and conversion of forest to
pasture for domestic animals.
Other reasons includes fire, pest, etc.
8.
9. Effect of Deforestation
1) Soil Erosion:- The soil gets washed away with rain water on sloppy area in
absence of trees leading to soil erosion.
2) Expansion of Deserts:- Due to action of strong wind mass of land gradually
gets covered to sand deserts.
3) Decrease in Rainfall:- In the absence of forest, rainfall decrease
considerably because forests bring rains and maintain high humidity in
atmosphere.
4) Loss of Fertile Land:- Less rainfall results into the loss of fertile land owing
to less natural vegetation growth.
10. Effect Of Deforestation
5) Effect on climate:- Deforestation includes regional and global climate
change .Climate has become warmer due to lack of humidity in deforestation
regions and also patterns of rainfall has changed . Drought have become
common.
6) Loss of Bio-diversity:- Deforestation cause the bio-diversity leading to
disturbances in ecological balance world wild.
7) Environmental changes:- It will lead to increase in carbon dioxide
concentration and other pollutants. This will result in global warming.
11. Forest Degradation in India
In India timber is used for preparing plywood, veneer, boards , doors, windows,
and other furniture.
Wood is also used for cooking and heating.
India has lost 3.4 million hectares of forest cover from the period of 1951- 1970.
Nearly 1% of land is turning barren per year due to deforestation.
12. Solutions of deforestation :-
AFFORESTATION
Establish new forests where no forest existed previously.
REFORESTATION
Cutting must be replaced by planting young trees.
13. Control of deforestation
Make Laws and Regulations.
Promote Recycling.
Use recycled products.
Use alternate energy resources like Solar power, Wind power.
Educate other to fight against deforestation.
Ban on clear cutting of forests.
14. Conclusion :-
If we do not put an end to deforestation , all of earth’s forests will
disappear within the next 100 years.
