Deforestation

The clearing of forests to create land for the construction industry, the construction of roads, construction of dams, and mining is leading to desertification. 

The causes of deforestation are:- 

1. Crop-offset:- 

This method is used by the tribal communities in small forest clearing and burning. The bread is successfully grown in this area for many years. After you have left this region, and are looking to move to a new area. 

Because of this, it is 5 lakh hectares of forest are being aborted every year. 

In India, the practice is in the north-east of Asia, and, to some extent, are in A. P., Bihar, M. R. the opening half of the total area of forest per year. 

2. Overgrazing by cattle- 

Overgrazing leads to the loss of soil and its fertility.( see last page) 

3. Raw material for industrial applications 

The wood to make boxes, furniture, railway sleepers, pastry wood, the matchboxes, and pulp for making paper, etc., etc. and they put an immense amount of pressure in the pipeline. 

Plywood is a high demand for coffee packaging design for the Assam tea industry, and spruce wood that is widely used for apple's packaging in J & K.

4. Development Projects Include:- 

Mass deforestation it for a variety of projects, such as hydroelectric power plants, large dams, road construction, mining, etc., etc.

. 5. The growing food needs to be:- 

In order to meet the needs of a rapidly growing population, agriculture, and settlements will be made by the phenomenon. 

6. Mining:- 

The extraction of minerals and fossil fuels, like coal, are often associated with extensive areas of forest. 

At this moment, more than 80,000 hectares of land is under stress. 

Large-scale deforestation took place in Mussoria the Dehradun Valley (40 km). 

Massive mining operations in the woodlands, It has been destroyed and more than 50 000 hectares of forest.

The consequences of the destruction of forests- 

The threats to the lives of many, many species of wild life. 

Biodiversity has been lost. 

This has an impact on the hydrological cycle. 

The problems of soil erosion and loss of fertility of the soil increases. 

It doesn't add more carbon dioxide in the atmosphere and the warming of the earth will increase. 

In the mountainous areas, and this often leads to landslides. 

Reduced oxygen concentration.
