Explain: As seen from Photo 9, due to trees being removed, there are no roots to absorb the water hold the soil together to prevent it from eroding. The trees also provide a a barrier to help reduce the amount of water passing through.

Explain:

the amount of plants and animals  and many animals can go extinct ,with the loss of biodiversity the amount of resources can disappear

As seen from Photo 7,
while cutting the tree the leopard is cut in half , if other animals that are harmed while people cut down trees .the population of the species will decline which will result in the decline of it's predators and an increase in it's prey. When such a thing occurs , the balance of wildlife is imbalanced

-Explain:

As seen from Photo 2, large areas of trees are cleared to make space for cattle to graze due to the growing demand for dairy and beef products.

Explain: As seen from Photo 5, rapid deforestation often destroys the rainforest faster than it can replenish itself.This would affect the earnings of industries that rely on rainforest resources.

Explain: As seen from Photo 4, trees are the "lungs" of the Earth. They take in Carbon Dioxide and give out oxygen in the daytime through photosynthesis. With Commercial and illegal logging taking place faster than ever before, the Earth's rainforests are rapidly vanishing. Without these trees, Carbon dioxide cannot escape from the atmosphere. Carbon Dioxide is a greenhouse gas and once it gathers in the atmosphere, it causes heat from Solar Radiation to escape and remain trapped in the Earth's atmosphere. As the amount of CO2 gas is increasing, the amount of heat trapped increases. Soon the effect of the heat gradually becomes increasingly obvious. Once the situation becomes severe, Global Warming occurs, without the help of well, trees.

Explain:
As seen from Photo 1, the trees that are burnt down affect the lives of animals in the rainforests. The rainforest is the home for many other animal species. By cutting down trees, we are being selfish and we are also taking advantage of the things on earth. Of course we can cut down trees but we need to limit ourselves so as to not destroy any species. Burning down trees also pollute the air. Such an easy job burning down trees but so many consequences. We should stop burning trees.

Explain: As seen from Photo 6, the fire will spread and will burn down their houses.causing them to have no housing places and forcing them to move out of that forest. There will be no place for the tribes to live, they will lose their homes.

Group (C): Identify the impact: Increased risk of flooding

# data[].attributes.body
The clearing of rain forests increase the risk of flooding. The ground will become bare so the rainwater will fall on it and flow over the surface more rapidly as surface runoff, causing flooding in the surrounding areas. If there were trees, the forest would intercept the rainwater and allow it to seep into the ground, instead of flooding the land.

As seen from Photo 3,
flooding has occurred due to deforestation. Since the trees in the area where the photo was taken have been chopped down, the rainwater cannot seep into the ground. Therefore, flooding occurs.
