Deforestation is a serious environmental problem affecting our planet.

It refers to the massive removal of trees and the destruction of forest areas, a process that has devastating consequences for biodiversity, ecological balance and the global climate.

Deforestation occurs mainly due to human activity, such as the expansion of agriculture, illegal logging, construction of infrastructure and exploitation of natural resources.

These irresponsible activities not only destroy natural habitats, but also contribute to climate change by releasing large amounts of carbon dioxide into the atmosphere.

Forests play a crucial role in climate regulation, biodiversity conservation and the provision of ecosystem services, and are home to many species of plants and animals, some of which are endemic and endangered.

To combat deforestation, it is important to take measures such as promoting reforestation, implementing conservation policies, encouraging sustainable agricultural practices and reducing demand for products that contribute to deforestation, such as illegal timber and palm oil products.

Deforestation is a complex and far-reaching problem that requires the collaboration of governments, international organisations and individual awareness and action. It is essential to protect and preserve our forests to ensure a sustainable future for generations to come.
