7 Is this image showing a deforested OR a reforested area? How can we tell?

12 - Planting is a form of reforestation - Some environmental companies plant new trees after cutting down trees so that there is always a continuous supply of trees available.

13 Reforestation means? Why do we reforest forests?

14 We reforest so that:  The negative effects of deforestation can be reduced.  We would have more oxygen and cleaner air to breathe (plants take in carbon dioxide and give off oxygen).  Climate changes will be reduced.  We can conserve natural habitats of animals and save them from becoming endangered and extinct.

15 Time for Journal work!
