What is Deforestation? | Eco Facts | One Tree Planted
Deforestation is a huge environmental challenge. But what is deforestation? What drives it, and how we can preserve and restore the world's forests.

🌲 Plant Trees: onetreeplanted...
Simply put, #deforestation is the clearing of wide areas of trees by cutting trees down. Our planet’s forests are some of the most valuable resources we have. They provide us with clean air, a source of food, construction material, and much more.
Even more importantly, #forests are a major line of defense against climate change. A single tree can absorb up to 48 pounds of carbon dioxide from the atmosphere each year - which makes them the most effective CO2 scrubbing machines we have.
Despite this, forests are being systematically eliminated all across the world - a process we know as deforestation. Agriculture for palm oil, soy, and cattle, along with logging for wood and fuel are the top causes of deforestation. But all is not lost, there is definitely a way to create sustainable economic growth without destroying more of the planet's few remaining intact forests. By implementing sensible approaches to energy, land use, and agriculture, we can greatly reduce deforestation and create a future full of biodiversity.
Beyond that, #reforestation (plating trees) is vital to counterbalance the deforestation that has occurred historically. Only through planting native #trees can we restore our damaged landscapes to lush and healthy forests.
Our video, Deforestation Explained, aims to inform you about deforestation and how we can limit the negative effects of cutting trees down. We also highlight how, through planting trees and restoring forests, we can reverse the negative ecological impacts of deforestation and set our environment back on the right track.
This video works well as a learning tool for high school students and would work well for a teacher searching "What is Deforestation KS2"

The rate of deforestation will remain dangerously high if the demand for wood remains high. One thing that will help slow the rate down is to keep our wooden furniture for as long as possible, and make repairs when needed instead of throwing away. If people do replace their furniture too frequently, it will only drive the demand for more trees to be chopped down.

Or ditch wood all together and go for metal and plastic furniture which is more durable and better for the planet, well for tress.

@@AutodidactEngineer Some furniture is already made from metal and plastic. We can't ditch wood altogether, wood is a renewable resource. The trouble is people are too wasteful. If they want to buy any furniture, they ought to consider buying second hand.
