The more trees that get cut down the less oxygen because trees take in carbon dioxide and let out oxygen and that hurts the human and the environment. That is the connection between economic benefits and deforestation.  

Madysen, please see me.

Also when you cut down the trees you can use that land for farming and live stock which would be used for food. That wood would be used for many things like I said in my examples.When food and crop prices go up, that means more forests get cut down. Another connection would be when the population starts to grow bigger and there needs to be more places for homes. Which means more wood gets cut down and used for the houses. These are some connections of the benefits of deforestation.

Trish, please see me.

You can sell it to a big building company or to a fire wood company. When forests or just sections of forests are cut down there is more space for cities, meaning more people, meaning higher demands for farming and food. Again, this means more food or wood is sold to big companies, then to the warehouses, then to the stores and restaurants. Another connection would be, the big companies paying the wood cutting companies/businesses to cut down trees and forests for the whole chain of money to begin again. That, is how deforestation and economic bene

With populations rising the need for more food and agricultural products is rising. People cut down more and more trees so they can meet that demand of the population increasing. Another example is when people cut down entire forests so they can make more and more room for houses and factories that are being built. This means that more houses and cities are built due to the economic benefit, deforestation. This explains why deforestation and economic benefits are related.

Excellent job, Sophia!!

The connections between economic benefits and deforestation could be clearing forest for farmland. Another other examples could be when people make a dam to create hydro electric power. Or clearing part of  a forest for mining or drilling. One of the more common ones I think though is when you clear a part of a forest to clear room for incoming buildings. For example, clearing part of the forest in Wildewood to make space for more houses.

Good job, Brendyn.

For example farm land they cut down tress to make farm land so they can crow crops and  have animals and when it is cut down there is more room for cities to get money.

Jacob, good job, however you need 4-5 sentences.

Then you can use that wood and build things for houses or buildings. Another example is cutting down forests to make farmland. However, we can use that farmland to feed and help the growing population. If you have cut down a large section of land it could be used for something great in return. In the article, they said that loggers are clearing more than 100,000 miles for roads that can be used for buildings or companies of some sort.   Finally, if they are cutting down a lot of forests they can be hurting animal habitats but they can also be building new things that are good for animals (like animal sanctuaries).

Excellent work, Dylan.

Also, when people need to build cities, towns, etc, they cut down trees to make room for them. Trees are not only needed for space, they are needed for materials too. Chopping down trees provides lumber that people need to build. Economic benefits effect forest by deforestation. But, deforestation can also effect economic benefits.
Fires, for example, can not just burn down forests, but can effect the people living in, or around the forest. Also, when chopping down trees, we are letting carbon dioxide into the atmosphere, reducing our oxygen and making breathing harder and harder. These pieces of evidence show that economic benefits don't just effect deforestation, but deforestation can effect economic benefits too. This shows how they are related.

Good work, Rosalia!!

Another example could be using wood for clearing forest to raise livestock and grow crops. People also use it for mining and drilling for natural resources. It can be used for creating dams for water power and to just have water period.

Jeremiah, good work! You can elaborate on some things, though.
"people also use It**" -- explain what you mean.

Then, you can use the materials to build houses and make space for farm land. By loggers clearing trees for more than 100,000 miles can be used for something good that us humans need.

People cut down trees to build a work place or homes for the people.When you clear forest area  to make economic resources, that is an economic benefit.

Another economic benefit that causes deforestation is that  loggers cleared trees for more than 100,00 miles of roads through a jungle. People are also cutting down trees in the Amazon (7,000 square miles are lost each year). But what some people don't understand is that we need trees and rain forests in order to survive, since they give us oxygen. This is why deforestation and economic benefits are connected. 

Good points, Ekin. Explain the following: how does deforestation help the economy?

Illigal logging is process of cutting down to many trees and it is hard to get caught because there is to much forest land. Economic Benifits is alot of money for something.From thousands to ten thousanths came this started in the early 1970s. IN 2007 20%of the rainforest was gone .

But due to our population growing we keep cutting more trees, getting rid of homes for the animals who live in trees, for our growing population of people in this world.
