Deforestation will always continue, but there are things you can do to help the environment.
Always remember the three "R"s:
Reduce the amount of plastic and waste products you have to use.
Reuse things like water bottles, foam trays, and plastic shopping bags as much as you can.
Recycle bottles, cans, newspaper, cardboard and other recyclables.

70% of Earth’s land animals and plants live in forests, and many cannot survive the deforestation that destroys their homes.

Forest soil is generally moist, but can quickly dry out without the protection of a forest canopy.This can also majorly effect the animals living in that particular climate.

Fewer forests means larger amounts of greenhouse gases entering the atmosphere.
