Dialogue Between Two Friends on Harmful Effects of Deforestation

Dialogue between two friends on effects of deforestation

Zafi: Hello Zarif! How are you?

Zarif: I am fine and you?

Zafi: I am fine too. But I can't understand one thing that is much talked all around and this is deforestation.

Zarif: Oh, I see. Actually deforestation is the indiscriminate cutting down of trees which means destruction of trees, woods, and forests.

Zafi: It is okay. But there are a lot of trees around us. I can't understand why trees are so important in our life?

Zarif: Trees are very important to us. They give us shade and shelter. They cause rainfall and help agriculture. They prevent soil erosion and flood. Most importantly, trees give us oxygen to breathe and take in carbon-di-oxide which is harmful to life.

Zafi: Oh, I see. But what is the problem if people cut trees and make good by planting more trees?

Zarif: The problem is that people cut trees but do not plant trees accordingly. As a result, we are losing trees in large scale and deforestation is taking place gradually.

Zafi: I can understand. But what is the effect of deforestation?

Zarif: The effects of deforestation are too many to describe. It disturbs our ecological balance, rises temperature, and causes greenhouse effect.

Zafi: I see the consequences of deforestation is tremendous. How can we get rid of this disaster?

Zarif: Only planting of trees more and more can save us from this kind of disaster. We should make the people conscious of the importance of trees.

Zafi: I see if trees and plants do not exist in sufficient number, we will face a lot of problems.

Zarif: Yes, if we destroy trees at random, one day the country will turn into a great desert.

Zafi: Now the bad effects of deforestation have become clear to me. Thank you.  

Zarif: You are most welcome. See you again.
