The most destructive and harmful tragedy that our rainforests, specifically the Amazon, suffer from is deforestation. Deforestation is the clearing or destruction of land throughout forests. Unfortunately, human beings are the number one cause of deforestation throughout the world. The reason if this is simply because we use the wood mainly for things like hydroelectric dams that power communities, palm oil for its biofuel resourcefulness, and the mining for diamond and gold. Another reason would
Introduction: Some of the trees on earth have existed for longer than three thousand years. They have lived across history from even before the days of Jesus Christ. God has provided these trees with his care and has protected them from natural disasters. He saved them from everything ranging from droughts to floods. Yet, the Almighty wasn’t able to provide them with immunity from the foolishness and shortsightedness of man. The development of humanity and technology is causing the destruction of
In Figure 4, Mr. Yi explained that the increases in atmospheric temperature causes higher saturation vapor pressure, the greater the capacity for water to evaporate from soils and water bodies and transpire from plants. With the increase of saturation vapor pressure atmospheric warming directly increases plants evapotranspiration demands, which would to more water emitted by vegetated surfaces to the atmosphere unless soil moisture gets too depleted. Weather systems accompanied with extreme precipitation

Biodiversity is variety of plant and animal life in the world or in a particular habitat, a high level
the largest country of South America, and it 's the fifth largest in the whole world. It actually almost covers half the continent of South America.

Deforestation and its environmental impact Deforestation is the action of clearing a wide area of trees. Twenty percent of the world's rainforest has been destroyed because of deforestation. Forests cover about 30% of the planet. Deforestation is clearing forests on a massive scale. National geographic stated that “The world’s rainforest could completely vanish in a hundred years at the current rate of deforestation.” (NG 2015) The cause of deforestation is from number of things. Some are unintentional
An increase in elevation sees an abrupt change in vegetation structure and composition, occupied by low growing sub-alpine woodland dominated by snow gums and treeless valleys (Figure 1). Barker (1998) found that post-fire, the woodland consisted of regrowth from lignotubers. However, if fire intensity is too severe, these lignotubers will be destroyed, severely impacting on the regeneration process and vegetation structure (Barker 1998). Such conditions will burn vegetative cover, removing or damaging
