The definition of deforestation is cutting down and removing all or most of the trees in a forest. Deforestation causes can either be direct -natural occurances or indirect -human activities.

Below are the causes of deforestation:
*Over population
*Illegal logging
*Livestock ranching
*Agricultural activities
*Urbanisation
*Mining
*Forest fires
*Desertification of land.

While the underlisted are different ways deforestation affects our health:
*Increase in global warming
*Increase in Greenhouse gas emissions
*Loss of biodiversity
*Climate imbalance and change
*Acidic oceans
*Wildlife extinction and habitat loss
*The decline in life quality of people.

Furthermore, deforestation is having another worrisome effect: an increase in the spread of life-threatening diseases such as malaria and dengue fever. For a host of ecological reasons, the loss of forest can act as an incubator for insect-borne and other infectious diseases that afflict humans.

Having stated the above reasons, what do you think about deforestation?

Are there civil groups in your country kicking against it?
What is governments involvement, directly or indirectly?

Is there accusations of government involvement in deforestation like in Brazil? Is your country not experiencing such?

I believe while hurrican is loosing along as she wishes, is because the trees that should have shield human beings from its voraciousness has been taken down.

The rate at which the ozone layers is depleting, if the act of planting is not encouraged by individuals and civil societies, one day humans might go up in flames.

Looking in deep into the biological function of the forest , according to research it stated that 90% of all the oxygen that is generated for human consumption is with from the forest and the sea, both of them play a very important role in balancing the oxygen level of the universe, one of the dangerous effects of deforestation is global warming.
