Paragraph - Deforestation

Paragraph - Deforestation

Deforestation means cutting down trees indiscriminately from an area. It is a global problem which is haunting the whole world. There are many causes behind this deforestation. Our population is increasing day by day. More people need more timber, wood, fuel, and furniture. So they are cutting down trees to meet up their increasing demand. There are some dishonest people who are cutting down trees in our forests to make money. They are also destroying forests in a large scale to increase the cultivable and residential land. Sometimes they cut down trees and destroy forests in the name of development. In absence of trees and forests, carbon dioxide is increasing worldwide. As a result, there is global warming. The sea level is rising. If this situation continues, the lower parts of the world including Bangladesh may one day go under water. Bangladesh has only 16% forest whereas there should be 25% forest of the total land area. The lack of enough trees and forests will take a heavy revenge on human beings. Various natural disasters will continuously threaten our existence. Flood, cyclone will show their appearance frequently. Even random cutting of trees may one day turn the whole country into desert. So, we all should be sincere to protect trees and take a firm stand against deforestation. Government should introduce strict law and punish the people who are responsible for deforestation. Alternative use of trees should be found out and tree plantation should be inspired and strengthened. Thus we can prevent deforestation and ensure a happy and healthy life.
