The problems of deforestation

Since a unacceptable time, people destroys our forests. This is a big problem, because the forest, particularly the tropical rainforest, absorb carbon dioxide. No forest, no absorption and this means on the other hand global warming. Not only the global warming is a problem, that is caused thru deforestation, but also the destruction of the animal habitats is terrible.

A cause for the deforestation is the demand for fuels, for example the West's demand for biofuel. The farmer cuts down forests and build there crops such as maize/corn and palms, which are principal constituents of biofuel.
