Forests are the lungs of the earth. Destruction of the world’s forests amounts to death of the world we currently know. To what extent do you agree or disagree? Give reasons for your answer and include any relevant examples from your own knowledge or experience.

Forests

are an integral part of the

planet

earth

and they are like lungs of it, as they help the

planet

to breathe properly.

Therefore

I am in consummate accord with

this

statement and in my opinion

deforestation

will eventually lead to the end of many species on

earth

.

Forests

keep ecological and weather conditions.

Trees

in

forests

help to purify the

air

by taking CO2 and releasing oxygen.They provide shelter to several animals during all seasons like hot summer and heavy rainy seasons.They play a key role in maintaining the temperatures balanced.If the

planet

has

trees

in abundance, the change of seasons will occur naturally. On the flip side,

deforestation

leads to irreparable damage and severe disastrous consequences.More and more

trees

are being cut down to accommodate the needs of the growing population.

This

in turn is impacting the

earth

in a very undesirable manner.

For instance

, the increased pace of

deforestation

accelerates global warming and results in the melting of polar ice. Uncontrolled cutting of

trees

also

leads to

air

pollution.If

trees

are cut, the

air

does not get purified and the polluted

air

becomes a major health hazard for leaving beings. Many animals and birds have already lost their habitats and are facing extinction.As

forests

are destroyed, the rare herbs and medicines found in them

also

get destroyed. In conclusion,

forests

play a key role in the survival of life on the

earth

and excessive

deforestation

will wreak havoc and lead to the loss of most of the species and ultimately the end of life on the

planet

.
