Storm water runoff if it rains not reduced, but increased which'll contribute to small floods and topsoil erosion. Furthermore, trees add humidity into the air through transpiration but the lack of trees results in the lack of moisture in the air.
We use and waste paper everyday without realizing we're helping to kill four billion trees cut down every year. Due to global deforestation, there'd be no paper, baseball bats, barrels, books, blocks, benches, crutches, coffee filters, guitars, grocery bags, pencils, pine oil, beds, billboards, buttons, fuelwood, charcoal, industrial roundwood, candy wrappers,chewing gum, cork, crayons, spices, egg cartons, kites, linoleum, luggage, paper, pingpong balls, wooden chopsticks, rubber, tambourines, telephone books, tires, bark, fiber, dyes, incense, latexes, oils, resins, shellac, tanning compounds, waxes, toilet paper, turpentine, xylophones or wooden yo-yos.
Food harvested from trees like fruits, nuts, berries and maple syrup would be nonexistent as well. There are already many debates over whether we currently abuse non-renewable resources, but the most important of these resources is probably freshwater. Future politicians are going to have to make ground-breaking decisions on how to preserve enough freshwater resources for their country, and one option would be to wage war against othersto the death.
Rhett A. Butler, "Global Consequences of Deforestation in the Tropics. University of Michigan, " Global Deforestation. Shukla, C. Nobre, and P. Steve Nix, About. What can we do to prevent deforestation? Hearing all these devastating affects of deforestation certainly makes me shiver and hope we never have to meet such ends In fifty years or so, when the Amazon's gone, we'll be introduced to the beginning.
If complete and rapid destruction of the Amazon occurred, it would be irreversible. The effects on species diversity and atmospheric chemistry would be cataclysmic. Such conclusions leave people to wonder what we can do about it Right now, one mature leafy tree produces enough oxygen for the lifetime of ten people each season! There are billion trees, 6.
Cutting down trees is necessary to produce wood for construction, paper and other applications, but logging and other activities that kill trees can potentially lead to negative impacts on ecosystems and the environment as a whole.
Large scale tree cutting can lead to deforestation, a transformation of an area from forest to terrain with little vegetation. Plants create oxygen and absorb greenhouse gases. The destruction of trees may, therefore, encourage global warming. Changing temperatures can alter which organisms can survive in an ecosystem. Cutting trees can result in the loss of habitat for animal species, which can harm ecosystems. Tropical forests like the Amazon rain forest promote a cycle of evaporation and rainfall.
Loss of the rain forests could result in warmer and drier climates near the tropics, according to NASA, which could destroy ecosystems that many animal and plants depend on.
