Trees are the lifeblood of the earth.

They store harmful carbon dioxide and


provide the oxygen we breathe. Provide habitats and ecosystems that have
flourished and biodiversity on earth for millions of years. Create a haven for
some animals in the trunk, like relying on trees for food. Maintain the food
chain in nature.
Contribute to disaster risk reduction such as floods. But more than 60% of the
world's ecosystems have been degraded in the past decade, and we are
exploiting the price of natural resources at an alarming rate. One of them is
probably deforestation.
Our habits as consumers are contributing to deforestation. We make a lot of
things from wood such as furniture, cooking utensils, and even houses.
Doing so means we have to cut down more trees to meet our needs, but it also
means destroying the ecosystems on which so many animals depend to
survive. Many species will lose their habitats and food sources. Some species
are endangered, due to threats from pollution, global warming,
overexploitation, and overfishing. Some animals are on the verge of extinction
such as the giant pandas, Javan rhinoceros… So what's the solution?
