Forests produce fresh oxygen and participate in regulating climate. But every year tree cover of our planet is lessening due to deforestation. What are the primary causes of deforestation? To what results may it lead?

Forests have a role to play in fresh oxygen production and regulation of

climate

,

however

the forestation is decreasing the scale of places which are covered by the forests. There seem to be various factors which are responsible for the above situation, and a

number

of impacts, which we will outline here. A wide range of factors contributes to the destruction of forests. Possibly the root cause is logging trees illegally. Every year, to make sure that there is a balance between new cultivated trees and cut down ones, the authorities impose strict rules on the

number

of trees that can be cut by the registered companies.

However

, many of these companies and the unregistered companies cut down trees more that they are allowed.

As a result

, the

number

of cut trees would exceed the

number

of young trees.

Besides

,

this

imposed imbalance would affect the land because the green spaces would not be enough to maintain soil in these areas. Perhaps the

second

key origin is the human overpopulation. The

number

of people on the earth is inclining each year and

this

means that more people have to make their end meets

such

as housing.

Although

there are usually affordable houses in towns and cities, a considerable

number

of people living in the areas near forests prefer to stay there. To build new houses, they need places which are occupied by the forests.

This

would lessen the

number

of trees and enhance the rate of destroying forests.

However

, deforestation might bring about a

number

of negative effects. The most serious negative consequence could be

air

pollution. Since the forests act as the lung of the earth, deforestation can have a detrimental effect on our atmosphere due to hurting

this

vital organ of our planet.

In other words

, the forests absorb CO2, which is produced mostly by the human activities and produce O2 which is crucial for all creatures. Deforestation may impair balance between absorption of CO2 and production of O2 in favour of CO2 and

therefore

, worse the condition of atmosphere by increasing the amount of pollutants like CO2 in

air

. Perhaps the other major impact is exacerbating the

climate

change

. Anything

that is

able to

change

atmosphere would alter the

climate

change

. Regarding negative consequences of deforestation on quality of

air

, we can conclude that it exacerbates the

climate

change

which is one of the serious issues. By the way of conclusion, the causes of the destruction of forests are primarily to do with logging trees illegally and overpopulation, and the effects are felt in terms of exacerbating the

climate

change

and

air

pollution.
