Abstract
The purpose of this research is to identify the role of forest in
environmental protection.Forest issues are a big deal not just an area
covered with trees providing homes for several creatures that play a
big role in the conservation of biodiversity. Forest functions
maintain water supplies and absorb greenhouse gases to reduce
climate change. The research concludes by strongly calling an
attention to help prevent climate change by putting an end to
deforestation.

more than 400 amphibians and around 3 000 freshwater fishes (Da

chlorine, sulfur dioxide, and fluorides. The plant uses some of these
materials as food, and releases others into the air or soil. In this way,
plants receive nutrition and possibly help to purify the air as well
(1977, p. 5). Because carbon dioxide is a major greenhouse gas. Forest
can help reduce climate change.
So lastly, There is no doubt that forests do a good job of supporting
biodiversity by offering enbling habitats where different plants and
animals can easily thrive. Soil erosion is also be prevented by the
water resources protection of the forests. By absorbing cacbon dioxide,
forest could mitigate the effects of climate change on the ecosystems
that we rely on. However, the best place to fight pollution is still at its
source. What we need to do is putting an end to deforestation, finding
new and cleaner sources of energy, making better use of mass
transportation, because forests cannot prevent all pollution
problems.
