Deforestation is very bad
for us and the environment. The rainforest once
covered 30% of the worlds
land mass. Rainforest provides us with oxygen ,and
medicines to treat all kinds
of disease.
Deforestation is when you
cut down trees. Deforestation is clearing earth's forest on a massive scale. Because of deforestation 1215 million acres of forest is
lost each year. Did you
know that 50,000 % of
plants and animal species
become extinct every year
Special points of
interest:
due to deforestation?
Seventy percent of the world’s
plants and animals live in the
forest and are losing their habitats. Loss of habitat leads up to
special extinction. In the 2010
soccer world cup in Africa, they
had to cut down trees to build
some of the soccer stadium.
Deforestation is a permanent
destruction of forest in order to
make land available for other
uses. An estimate of 18 million
acres of forest of forestroughly the size of Panama are
lost each year according to the
United Nations Food and Agriculture organization is known
as the FAO.

Causes of Deforestation.
 By cutting down the
rainforest our
amount of oxygen
is decreasing.
Some causes of deforestation is overpopulation in
Africa. They are so populated that they have to cut
down trees to build
houses. Other cause of deforestation is they cut
down trees to make cattle

ranches, mining industries ,oil and gas extracting,
and also agriculture; CASH
CROPS. Also, since they
don't make much money
they cut down trees and
sell them to logging industries.

How Deforestation
Kills Humans.
Deforestation kills humans by not getting the
resources , like medicines to cure diseases
like flu ,inflammation,
and cancer. Deforestation limits the supply of
oxygen. All of that just
because we cut down
trees. Also cutting down
trees causes a lot of
pollution . Pollution gets

in the humans body an
makes it hard to
breath and could
cause lung cancer.
Also it could cause a
lot of disease's that can
not be probably cured.
How deforestation kill a certain kind of
animals.
Orangutans are an example of species that
are threatened by deforestation . Deforestation kills these orangutans because it destroys
their habitats ,and they
have nowhere to
live,like in the picture
provided on the side.
The poor orangutan
doesn't have any
where else to live because they destroyed
its home. Another species that is becoming
extinct is the elephant. The elephant is
becoming extinct is
because they are dying
of starvation?
How deforestation effects the environment
Deforestation effects the
environment because it
destroys the land that
the farmers use right after they cut down the
trees. That land that they
use only works for about
2 years and then it stars
turning into desert.
Which that means that
deforestation leads up
to desertification. That's
why in the Sahel in Africa it is the part that is
suffering the most from
deforestation and deser-
tification. That's why in
the forest the people have
to cut down the trees because the people don't
have money to make there
farmland that why it keeps
on happing and happing .
First the people there
farmland turns into sand
so they cut down some
trees they establish there.
The next two years the
land is sand it just keeps
on happening .they keep
on cutting the land and
that’s how it effects the
environment.
