Wood for paper and furniture.

Wood for fuel coals

Negative effects of Deforestation

Destroying animals homes (habitat) These are some endangered animals whose homes and food source have been destroyed by deforestation.

Causes landslides and soil erosion

Less oxygen and more carbon dioxide in the air leads to the greenhouse effect (global warming).

Three groups of std.4 made models of forested and deforested areas to show the effects of rainfall.

Deforested area

Forested area (group 1)

Forested area (group 2)

Deforested area (model of a city) and model of the two forested areas

After the rains came... Deforested area Forested area

In the deforested area there is flooding.

Forested area (group 1)

Forested area (group 2)
