Why is Deforestation a Global Concern?

Deforestation is the cutting down of trees for Logging, Mining and Country Development. Logging is done to produce wood for house furniture. Mining is done to dig up ore. While like the U.K did many years ago countries are chopping down trees to develop their countries from third world countries. Some countries also deforest to stop emigration. Some effects of deforestation are the goodness out the soil e.g Humus and Litter being lost and the soil being poor for farming. Another effect is the damage being done to animals habitats and this causes the animal cycles to be damaged.

Before Deforestation

Before deforestation started to occur there was heavy rainfall, this caused Evapotranspiration, this put large amounts of water vapor in the atmosphere and then made condensation. This went round in a circle to form a never-ending cycle until deforestation occurred. Also the Carbon Dioxide given of by people, powerstations and Industry is absorbed by the trees, then of this the trees give of oxygen, then the animals plus people use up this oxygen, then it goes back to the powerstations, people and industry giving off carbon dioxide to form another never-ending cycle.
