Why did we choose Deforestation?
We chose deforestation because we thought that deforestation is such a huge issue in earth and that it is harming the environment, humans as well.
Causes of Deforestation:
- Agricultural Activities
- Logging
- Urbanisation
- Buildings
- Mining
- Forest Fire
- Poverty
- Harvest Timber
- Create High Prized Items
- Urbanization
- Desertification of Land
- Palm Oil
- Hydroelectric dams

- Increase in Global Warming
- Floods
- Bad Pollution
- Landslides
- Water Loss
- Loss Of Species
- Life Quality
- Extinction
- Loss in life
- Increased green house gases
- Water in the atmosphere
- Forests will become desserts
- Destruction of homes
- Water cycle

Possible Solutions:
1. Control the felling of the trees by appointing a series of rules and laws to govern it.
2. Clear cutting of forests must be banned.
3. Cutting must be replaced by planting young trees to replace the older ones that were cut.

Action:
We decided to set up a community canvas to raise awareness about deforestation and to tell people that it is not good for the environment and humans as well. We also wanted to tell people that if we keep cutting the trees too often, in the future, we might not have anymore trees that can help us live our lives.
