Deforestation is the indiscriminate cutting of trees. This is a problem haunting the whole world . According to the

ecologists , for liveable environment there should be forest on the 25% land of the total land area . In Bangladesh 

there is 16% forest of the total land. In India there is 13 % forest of the total land . To meet up the basic needs of food

and housing man is destroying forest without caring for the ecological imbalance . 

 

Trees play a pivotal role in maintaining ecological balance. Trees produce oxygen and receive carbon dioxide . In 

absence of trees carbon dioxide is increasing worldwide . As a result there is global warming . The sea level is rising . Any time in future the earth may be engulfed by seas. So deforestation should be stopped now.
