This document discusses ways to reduce deforestation. It begins by defining deforestation as the clearing of forests by humans to meet needs, which has increased due to human ignorance and greed. Deforestation leads to ecological imbalance, environmental pollution, soil erosion, and climate change. While India's forest cover has fallen below recommended levels, movements like Chipco have brought awareness to forest conservation. The document recommends promoting forest regeneration, decreasing wood waste, creating public awareness of deforestation hazards, and encouraging sustainable forest management to maintain ecological balance.

Topic: How we can reduce deforestation INTRODUCTION
Forest is an important source for satisfying peoples demands
and needs. Thus undoubtly people would try to exploit forest resources. This process of exploiting forest is called deforestation. The clearance of forest done by the human beings in order to meet their needs is known as deforestation.
In other words deforestation is the process of clearing the forest
by cutting down the trees for fulfilling their demands. Forest has vital role in meeting peoples needs. Therefore peoples usually cut down the trees of the forest without having proper knowledge. Human ignorance and greed are the important causes of deforestation .Ignorant people were not aware of the harmful effects of cutting down the trees. Greedy people continued to clear forests for their own selfish interest. The exploitation of forests is has been done in the past in the name of so called human welfare and development .The past centaury raw massive deforestations in India .In India many wild animals and birds become rare species due to massive deforestation.
Forests are natures protective shields, but this shield is being
eroded by human folly and greed. Indiscriminate cutting of trees leads to the situation such as: disturbance of ecological balance, environmental pollution, soil erosion and landslides, floods, water resources may be get dried, climate change etc. Due to deforestation, the forest cover India has fallen below the minimum recommended level. According to experts, forests should cover about one third of the total area of country But in India forests covers around 24%of the total area.
Chipco movement was the movements against
deforestation.Realising the devastating effect that deforestation cause to the environment, this movement varies in support for forest conservation.
The evil of deforestation was highlighted by environmental activities.
They embraced the trees which were about to be it and thus created public awareness about the need of forest presentation.
OBJECTIVE
We want to create public awareness on the effect of deforestation and
to research on ways to reduce negaline impacts to the environment through using blogger.
PREVENTION OF DEFORESTATION
I) All nations should promote the regeneration of degraded
forest lands to increase permanent forest cover, reduce pressure on natural forest, conserve biodiversity ,protected water sheds and soils and stabilise\ limae. II) There should be efforts to realize pressure or forests by decreasing wastes in wood burning stoves and seeking alternatives raw materials III) Public awareness must be created against the hazards of deforestation. IV) There should be efforts to encourage sustainable forest management in order to maintain ecological balance;
Thus deforestation is an important issue to be discussed. It has
adverse effects on each living beings life. Deforestation has become a huge concern in todays life as there has been a rise in the decline of forests. Deforestation dues have solutions. Its just that the people must step forward.
