Question: What are the consequences of deforestation?

Mayank Ranka · Accepted Answer

Deforestation refers to the removal of trees resulting in cleared land.There are several consequences of deforestation:1. Changes in Soil:	Loss of nutrients in the soil that are derived from breakdown of tree leaves.	Increased soil erosion by wind and rain.	Increased flooding due to a lack of water absorption by trees.	Decreased ability to support other plants due to nutrient loss.2. Loss of biodiversity:	Animals and plants that are unable to grow outside of a forest environment face extinction.3. Climate change:	Increased greenhouse gases (such as carbon dioxide) present in the airwhen trees are not available to absorb them.	Increased carbon in the air from the burning of trees.	Decreased cooling of land from water evaporation in forests.4. Impacts on humans:	Decreased availability of wood for cooking and heating.
