how can deforestation increase pollution  

Dear Student, 

Please find below the solution to the asked query: 

Deforestation causes air pollution as cutting down the trees affects the environment. Plants and trees take in carbon dioxide in order to perform photosynthesis and in turn release oxygen. Thus, deforestation increases the carbon dioxide burden on the atmosphere and causes air pollution.

Hope this information will clear your doubts. 

If you have any more doubts just ask here on the forum and our experts will try to help you out as soon as possible.
Regards.

The subject of Deforestation – effects on Air Pollution and other effects have been a matter for debate for quite some time. We all know that massive areas of forest are cut down every day so businesses get the wood they want and others get the land they want. The trouble is that this process can have a devastating effect on the local area, and the environment as a whole.

It’s quite astounding to think that deforestation that occurs in the Amazon rain forest for example, can have an effect on the quality of the air that we breathe. We would all like the air that we breathe to be clean, but the greenhouse effect and other causes of global warming can put pay to that.

An Imbalance

Deforestation has an effect on global air quality because trees release water vapor into the air which affects atmospheric temperatures and other crucial elements that keep this earth of ours ticking over nicely. When there are fewer trees, less water vapor is released into the air, which means an imbalance occurs and we start to see the effects of global warming and temperature rises.

As well as causing a rise in the global temperature, deforestation affects the air that we breathe. This is because all trees take in carbon dioxide and other pollutants which are known to cause a lot of problems in the atmosphere. This inevitably results in all of us breathing dirtier and more polluted air than we otherwise would.

So what can we do about air pollution?

The fact of the matter is that we can ALL do something about air pollution. Governing bodies are trying to ensure we have better quality air, but it’s also up to us to make a difference too. The good news is that we can all have better quality air in our own homes as it’s fairly easy to buy air purifiers. These machines can help to get rid of the toxins and pollutants in the air around our home. This can help to promote better health in all of us, particularly in those who have breathing difficulties and allergies.

When it comes to air pollution on a global scale, we may not be able to make a huge difference as individuals, but we can at least try. There are fortunately businesses who work to ensure that even though they chop down trees, they do at least replace them. Some businesses replace each felled tree with another two or three, which can help to prevent things from getting worse. Unfortunately even if every tree was replaced by another three from here on in, it would be almost impossible to replace every single tree that has been felled.

Trying to make a difference

Right now, the air that we breathe may not seem particularly bad. There may be no foul stench or obvious sign of pollution, but that does not mean it’s not there. The government constantly monitors levels of pollution in the air, and they are often quick to act when things go wrong. Unfortunately although we are trying to make a difference, we cannot undo all the damage that has already been done. All we can do is try to make a difference to the quality of the air right now, do better ionizer and HEPA filtration analysis, and hope that things continue to improve.

18 million acres

It is thought that an astounding 18 million acres of trees are felled every year. Every single acre will affect the quality of the air that we breathe, even though we live thousands of miles away. But it’s not just deforestation that affects our air quality, there are other acts that have global warming effects too. We burn too much fuel, we recycle too little and we warm the atmosphere a little more each and every day. It’s hard for us to tackle the effects of global warming as a whole, but tackling it in a small way can help to make a difference if we all try.

Breathing Cleaner Air

One of the best things we can all do is to ensure that we try our best to have a positive effect on the environment. We can work to ensure our own homes create less pollution by using air purifiers. We will then begin to benefit as a result of breathing cleaner air, which could have a huge impact on our health. At the same time, we need to continue to recycle as much as we can, while also coming up with more ways to improve the environment, while breathing clean air in our homes.

Deforestation leads to the decrease of humidity which can increase the temperature of the surroundings.Trees also balance the heat level i.e. the temperature.

trees give oxygen which when are cut give no oxygen and thus vehicles pollution have a harmful impact .
