Deforestation

   

   Deforestation
is the purposeful clearing of forested land. Throughout history and now forests
have been used to make space for agriculture, grazing animals, and obtaining
wood for fuel. Forests are not only being used for manufacturing but also for
construction. Deforestation represents one the largest issue in global land
use, Earth`s croplands which cover about 49m sq km (18.9 m sq miles) are mostly
deforested lands. Deforestation is when humans remove forests for lumbers to
use the land where the trees stood for crops, grazing, extraction, mining oil
or gas, and also developments as the population increase as the people migrate. 

  Besides, it causes agricultural expansion, wood extraction, and infrastructure
expansion mostly used for road building and urbanization. Moreover, it affects
climates change, soil erosion, flooding increased greenhouse gases in the
atmosphere and many more. And these effects cause many diseases in which skin
disease is one of them. 

  Thus, deforestation impacts the environment through
loss of biodiversity and disruption of ecosystem processes and many more.
