Lesson 3:: What Are The Effects of Deforestation?

This document discusses the effects of deforestation. It begins by explaining that deforestation can cause flooding when trees are cut down and there is no longer coverage to prevent heavy rainfall from running directly into rivers. Deforestation also leads to soil erosion and climate change as trees play an important role in regulating temperatures. Many plants and animals become endangered or go extinct when their habitats are destroyed through deforestation.
