Old-growth natural forests store a huge amount of carbon, both in the trees and in the soils.
What effects does deforestation have on the environment?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.
How does deforestation affect the carbon cycle?When forests are cleared or burnt, stored carbon is released into the atmosphere, mainly as carbon dioxide. Averaged over 2015—2017, global loss of tropical forests contributed about 4. 8 billion tonnes of carbon dioxide per year (or about 8-10% of annual human emissions of carbon dioxide).
How does cutting down trees affect us and our environment?Trees absorb and store carbon dioxide. If forests are cleared, or even disturbed, they release carbon dioxide and other greenhouse gases. Forest loss and damage is the cause of around 10% of global warming. There's simply no way we can fight the climate crisis if we don't stop deforestation.
