Deforestation leads to habitat loss which causes a reduction in species diversity and endangers endemic species.

Removing trees exposes the soil to wind and water erosion, leading to loss of fertile topsoil and land degradation.

Trees play a crucial role in the water cycle; deforestation disrupts this cycle, leading to changes in precipitation patterns and reduced water quality.

Forests act as carbon sinks; deforestation causes carbon release into the atmosphere, contributing to the greenhouse effect and climate change.

Many undiscovered or commonly used medicinal plants are lost due to deforestation, affecting pharmaceutical resources.

Deforestation can cause a local increase in temperature and decrease in humidity, altering the local climate and potentially harming native species.

Deforestation can displace indigenous communities, destroy their livelihoods, and erase their cultures as they typically live in harmony with the forest.

Trees absorb CO2; when they are removed, less CO2 is absorbed, leading to higher concentrations of greenhouse gases in the atmosphere.

Deforestation can disrupt the economies of local communities that depend on forests for resources and employment.
