If forests are reduced in a large area, what disaster will it bring to mankind?

Forest is the largest and richest ecosystem on the earth. It is called the lung of the earth and maintains the balance of the global ecosystem. It has many functions such as soil and water conservation, air purification, temperature regulation, climate improvement and species protection, and is an important guarantee for maintaining the ecological balance and safety of the earth. However, if forests are reduced in a large area, it will bring unimaginable disasters to mankind and reduce air quality. The intensification of soil erosion will lead to global warming, make the temperature of the whole earth abnormal, trigger all kinds of extreme weather, make the drought and flood unbalanced, and cause a series of very serious consequences. Some experts predict that if there are no forests on the earth, it is absolutely impossible for human beings to live for more than one year.

Now with the continuous development of economy and the rapid development of various countries, trees are cut down and sewage is discharged indiscriminately, which has caused very serious environmental pollution. Coupled with the occurrence of various disasters, land desertification has also reduced the area of many vegetation on the earth, reduced the living environment of some animals and plants, and the air quality is getting worse and worse. The air that people breathe is mixed with some harmful substances, such as sulfur dioxide, which will be subtly affected. Moreover, according to the data, the speed of global deforestation and forest degradation is very alarming, so we must also take corresponding measures to protect forest biodiversity.

If you want to protect the forest, you can actually start from your daily life, save water resources as much as possible, refuse some white garbage, and try not to use disposable lunch boxes, chopsticks, plastic bags, etc. As long as it can reduce the amount of garbage, it can also reduce the production of plastic products and save a lot of raw materials, including some hydropower resources. We should also cherish our own paper in our daily life, and classify and cherish it after use.

In the end, in the face of the large-scale reduction of forests, what we can do is to make changes in time, give the earth a green mountain and green water, and make efforts for the long-term sustainable development of the earth.
