Deforestation awareness is important to the world. It is a subject that for many years has been going on throughout the world. Society need to understand that the trees, the plants and overall, the nature is already being damaged because of climate change. Which leads me to think if there is a way that humanity can contribute to nature and the answer is yes. Quitting deforestation plays an important part in nature, at the end of the day we need trees in order to survive.”The world needs more trees for human to survive” in this article it expalins that even though the trees give the human fruits and other more things the most important thing that wee need from them is that we need to plant trees to have more oxigen.

Deforestation awareness is one of the important things that needs to stop happening. Many trees have been knocked down because of the land that keeps making their roads or building their houses. But many people just think about their selves and they do not think about the nature. When deforestation happens it like the whole world is hurting themselves, because the trees and also the plants are the ones who give the world oxygen and also they take all the carbon that the world has.”More than two thousand trees, aged more than half a century, that made the 36 kilometre stretch of road a special place for people of the area, are being chopped down to widen the road.”

In the 1950s deforestation first became a serious concern. But it has been an issue since humans began making fires hundreds of thousands of years ago. The extinction of plants and animals due to deforestation has occurred for thousands of years. Cattle ranching is the one that begin with deforestation in the Amazon rainforest in Brazil. This has been the case since at least in the 1970s: government figures attributed 38 percent of deforestation from 1966 through 1975 to large scale cattle ranching. The Amazon rain forest was one of the victims to suffer the deforestation, it is the world largest rainforest surged to a 12 year high. The destruction was from a 11,088sq km that would be a 2.7 million acres. In the video it shows how the Amazon Rainforest deforestion has been happening.(0.00–0.44)

Not just that, but animal are also getting damaged because of the deforestation. “Tree clearing kills over 87 million animals in NSW”. This means that the humans in the world need to stop cutting down the trees and do the contrary. They should start to plant more trees and take care of them. “New South Wales now has the weakest woodland and forest protections. It is the worst place to live in Australia if you are a wild animal that needs trees to survive,” said Darren Grover, WWF-Australia’s Head of Living Ecosystems. It is sad to have all of this news about deforestation that now animals need to know where ther can be able to live because if there is not enough woodland and forest protection then they can die as how Darren Grover said in the article.

Since a thousand of years ago this started it would be very hard for people to stop doing it, it already became something normal to many. But they do not take into consideration that many species are being extinct because of that. A solution could be to cut less trees or none, just to make sure that the extinction of what is giving us oxygen is less. There are a lot of misconceptions going on with deforestation there is people that support it and that think that is the only way they can expand their lands. There should be much more support towards the idea that deforestation needs to stop. Because the planet is getting to a point where species are ending and never coming back. Cutting the trees is every time growing much more than the past years. Being aware that climate change has a powerful impact can maybe help society realize that already hurricanes, or tsunamis or any other aggressive change gets rid of a lot of trees.”We need to restore depleted ecosystems”.(0:00–2:58)

“These folk are hewers of trees and hunters of beasts; therefore we are their unfriends, and if they will not depart we shall afflict them in all ways that we can.” This quote is the same as i am thinking it describes how i feel because people that keep damaging the trees are not frinds until they understant that trees are important to nature.

The decision-makers are the ones that have to learn that deforestation is taking away happiness. Those who make decisions about prohibiting something or making something stop. People who are aware of what is going on and that understand that humans are the ones stopping nature from expanding.

We need to let know the government that it has to stop from cutting trees and

Finally, I’m against deforestation and beginning with me if I could ever do something to stop it I would. Nature is beautiful and has life just like all human beings and deserves to expand and to live just like any other creature. Having nature as part of us and playing a very important role among us already tells us a lot. We need to let know the government that it has to stop from cutting trees and to start to plant more trees than ever. If the government says that they must cut trees then every tree that is being cut down, then a tree must need to be planted somewhere else ! We need to take care of nature so it can take care of us.”Earth is our home lets protect it”

We need to take care of nature so it can take care of us.”Earth is our home lets protect it”
