DEFORESTATION MUST BE REDUCED!!!

Deforestation must stop. When I say deforestation, I mean when


My first argument is that we need our forests, because trees produce oxygen.
What I mean is trees take in Carbon dioxide, and let out the oxygen that we breathe.
For example, when youre hiking in the mountains, the air always feels more clear
and fresh, and thats all because of the trees that are around you. Did you know that a
tree produces approximately 58,790,347,597 pounds of oxygen per year, so what do
you think it would be like if there werent enough trees, what would it be like to lose
that much oxygen?
And that is why deforestation has to be reduced!
My second argument is that trees definitely help to prevent landslides. When I
say landslides, I mean when chunks of rock or dirt slides down the side of a mountain
or hill when there is a lot of wind or rain, because there is nothing to grip the it, And
that gripper is trees. Trees grip the ground, and that stops landslides. When I was
hiking once, I saw a place where there had been a landslide, and for a few meters
around that area, the wasnt one tree!
That is why deforestation must be reduced!
My last argument is that trees are an important habitat. When I say that trees
are an important habitat, I mean that there is a countless amount of different species
of animals that need the forest as there home. For example, when youre in the desert
or that sort of treeless area, do you see monkeys, or tigers, or bears? No! so if there
were no more forests, how many species do you think there would be left? And over
half of the worlds animal species live in rain forests, and hundreds are going extinct
now! Not only is that a threat to animals that live there, there are also tribes of
humans that live in those forests too!
What would it be like if all the trees disappeared, and eventually there wasnt
enough oxygen for everyone?
