DEFORESTATION

Cause and Effect

 WHAT IS DEFORESTATION?

Deforestation or forest clearance is the removal of a forest

or stand of trees from land that is then converted to non-
forest use. Deforestation can involve conversion of forest
land to farms, ranches, or urban use. The most concentrated
deforestation occurs in tropical rainforests.
 CAUSES OF
DEFORESTATION

Causes of deforestation are agricultural expansion,

wood extraction (e.g., logging or wood harvest for
domestic fuel or charcoal), and infrastructure
expansion such as road building and urbanization.
Rarely is there a single direct cause for deforestation.
 EFFECTS OF
DEFORESTATION

The loss of trees and other vegetation can

cause climate change, desertification, soil
erosion, fewer crops, flooding, increased
greenhouse gases in the atmosphere, and a
host of problems for Indigenous people.
