The Benefits Of Deforestation

It is predicted that in approximately forty to one hundred years from now, there will no longer be any rainforest. People have been deforesting the Earth for thousands of years, primarily to clear land for crops or livestock. Deforestation happens in many different ways: when trees are cut down to grow crops, for livestock, logging so wood can be used for building things like houses and furniture, for roads and neighborhoods, for firewood, and forest fires. Deforestation can also be good for farming purposes and making houses.

Deforestation began about 450 years ago by European civilization. The trees were the only source ancient civilization had available for firewood and shelter. Forest produce vital oxygen and provide homes for people

Yes deforestation destroys land the animals live on, but it also makes useful land for farming purpose. The land is used a lot for the food that shipped around the world and eventually consumed. The land is not only used to grow food. It is also used for things like improving road systems and economy stimulating businesses can be built.

Deforestation helps make civilization opportunities. A reporter from Nature World News named Luts stated "Forests also provide additional benefits to society - water and nutrient retention capabilities, providing habitat for a myriad of bird and animal species, aesthetic beauty, cultural and religious values to residents," Deforestation does not only affect the world negatively, but it provides additional benefits. When trees are cut down, the wood is used for a purpose. The wood from trees are used for lumber and other types of wood products. Some of the wood is used as firewood to keep warm. Deforestation also creates a strong revenue source for governments. This helps to stimulate the economy, especially in developing countries. Deforestation provides land for people who are not as fortunate. A vast majority of the land is unusable, so this helps feed hundreds of starving people. Deforestation may provide better climate benefits for certain areas than if the trees were left standing. Deforestation has economic and climate benefits in high-latitude areas where snowfall is common and timber productivity is low. At high elevation and latitude, the forests in White Mountain National Forest in New Hampshire receive substantial amounts of snowfall. Deforestation can help with places that receive lots of snow. Deforestation does not always have to be a negative topic, sometimes deforestation can be beneficial in some
