Negative Effects on the Environment
Main Causes of Deforestation
The main issues of deforestation are agricultural expansion, wood extraction, and infrastructural expansion. Agricultural expansion is the expansion of farms or more land for other needs. Wood extraction is also called logging or wood harvest. The wood is used for domestic fuel or charcoal. Infrastructural expansion is road building or urbanization.
Typically, construction workers are the main people that cause the issue, but they are just doing their job. Overall, its the peoples fault as a whole. People are in demand for bigger and better houses or new roads. No body thinks about the wildlife, they just want their homes.

Solutions
There are some solutions to pause/stop deforestation. One is the postpone the "felling of trees" by making laws and enforcing them. Another is to ban clear cutting forests. Lastly, the cutting of trees should be replaced with a young trees that will grow.
I think we should try to find another resource to replace wood. This would at least reduce the amount of wood we use. For example, instead of worksheets, we could use computers to do our work.
