Save our Forest

Explanation:

Plant a Tree where you can. Go paperless at home and in the office. Buy recycled products and then recycle them again. ... Support the products of companies that are committed to reducing deforestation.

There are many obvious consequences of deforestation and clearcutting, such as the loss of habitats for plant and animal species and the declining vitality of natural oxygen producers.  Forests play an important role in cleaning and protecting the atmosphere.  There are also less obvious consequences of deforestation and clearcutting.  When forests are cleared the land is exposed to the elements – water, wind, ice – that cause erosion.  Water is especially destructive to this cleared land because heavy rains wash away topsoil that can clog rivers and streams, causing flooding and the further loss of habitat.  One important method of preventing the devastating effects of deforestation is reforestation.  Reforestation is the replanting of trees to support forest growth in areas that have been cleared.
