Question

Texto em Inglês sobre a desflorestação

Answer 1

Deforestation is the intensive destruction of forest habitats. This has been increasingly increasing, putting its biodiversity at risk. Forests play an important role in regulating climate. The trees and other vegetation cover, by absorbing CO2 from the atmosphere, thus contributing to the reduction of global warming. In the forests, the tree cover houses many other forms of life. At least half of the terrestrial biodiversity is in the forests. Since humid tropical forests are the most biodiverse due to climate stability. Deforestation has affected all types of forests, with tropical forests most affected. About half of the world's forests have been destroyed. The human being thus becomes the main cause of the extinction of many species, since it has great responsibility for the deforestation. Throughout the history of the Earth there were great extinctions due to natural disasters, but today the main cause is due to the Man. It has exploited natural resources in an increasingly aggressive way. Thus, in the last century extinction rates were much higher than normal. To minimize deforestation, measures have been developed to combat deforestation. Such as an ecological awareness that favors reforestation.
