Forest has been of great importance to mankind since prehistoric days. 60% of the earth once covered with forest. With the development of civilization, large areas have been cleared to make way for farms, mines, towns and roads. Today about 30% of earth is still forested.
The economic value of forests, supply many products like wood from trees as lumber, plywood and fuel wood or charcoal. Timber is used in furniture making, building houses, ships and railway sleepers. Pulp and paper are made from the cellulose of trees. Processed wood products include cellophane, plastics, synthetic fibers like rayon and nylon. Latex from trees such as the rubber tree goes to make tyres, tunes and a wide range of rubber goods.
Other uses; fruits, nuts(balls) and spices are gathered from the forest. Many medicinal plants such as camphor, cinchona, coca (from which the drug cocaine is extracted) also come from the forests. Cork from the thick bark of the cork oak is stripped for making bottling cork.
Forests help to conserve soil by preventing rapid runoff of water after heavy rain and minimizing flooding. Trees take in carbon dioxide and release oxygen into air, which is a great benefit to mankind.
Forests influence local and global climate. The forest is also vital as a watershed. Because of the thick humus layer, loose soil, and soil-retaining powers of the trees' long roots, forests are vitally important for preserving adequate water supplies.
The wild animals and other beings get enough protection from the solar heat, temperature and the leaf cover formed on the earth gives cooling effect to the earth. . Since trees absorb heat, we shouldn't cut them down. Natural wildlife is important because it is part of the natural circle of life. If bears start to die off,{ as it would be too hot without trees/forests} than the trout are going to become overpopulated and other scavengers that rely on bears will begin to starve. Without eagles and other Birds of Prey, rodents' population will increase which will cause more rodents in the cities and towns.
Forests offer privacy, reduce light reflection, offer a sound barrier and help guide wind direction and speed.
• Forest help in giving the direction of wind and its speed.
• Forest helps in keeping environment healthy and beautiful.
• Forests also minimize noise pollution.
they help in the occurence of rain fall ,reduces soil erosion
Well without it there would be no life on the planet - and that includes humans! Besides which that is a purely human viewpoint. The animals might just as well say 'importance of humans'? And to that I would answer 'very little!' This planet would get along much better without us.
Forests are a very big role in the whole life cycle of the animals. They live in the forests, use the resources of the forest and also give off springs in the forest. The forest is the natural habitat for the animals and it plays a very important roles in the animal's life. Wildlife is can be saved by being kept in the forest as that is their habitat and they will be free there and give more off springs and ultimately create another population of this endangered animal.
Forests are important to animals,humans,and the environment.
1.Forests provide shelter, food, medicine, and protection.
2.Forest vegetation prevents flood and soil erosion and help maintains a clean and cool environment.
what are forest important to man and animals?
They are taking in CO2 and are releasing Oxygen,Carbon,Mineral Elements such as Nitrogen and Phosphorus.They also give us shade and protection from the sun.
Early man used natural sources such as animals,plants,coal and firewood.
The deciduous forest, that which can be classified as a dry tropical forest is home to many animals and insects. The Black and brown bears, bal eagle , and beavers share this clime with the bobcat.
Toxic materials is a general description of anything which is poisonous or harmful to man, animals, plant life or the environment.
In general, man does not respect the environment or take care of it. Man cuts down rain forests, which are vital to the health of the environment in many ways. Man overuses synthetic fertilizers and pesticides that pollute the soil and water. Manufacturing companies pollute the air and water by dumping their waste products into the environment. People in general do not recycle what they can. By doing all those things and more, man is the worst enemy of his own environment and the environment of future generations.
Fold mountains are important to humans because they provide valuable resources such as minerals, water, and fertile soil. They also support diverse ecosystems that are important for biodiversity and ecological balance. Additionally, they can offer opportunities for recreation, tourism, and scientific research.
Almost all forest animals try to avoid man, because man is a hunter, and can be very dangerous to animals. There are only a few animals with strong defenses which do not fear man. For example, skunks and porcupines. Some forest animals will approach man when they smell food and are very hungry. Some examples are bears, raccoons and coyotes.
Food, transportation, companionship.
plants,animals man
Men change their environment every day. That's how a forest becomes a parking lot (example)
The importance of man in the garden of Eden was that he controlled all the animals and birds there.
Man. Weather (rain, sunlight, wind, etc.). Insects/animals.
natural environment is like a forest whereby it was not built by humans but formed itself.man made environment is like a park or a garden. Man made it and it was not there by it self....so natural environment is something natural or made on it's own without man. But man-made environment is like a garden. man made it and it was not there on it's own !
1 . it serves as food to man and to some aquatic animals

There are several things in the environment that are biotic. They mainly consist of plants and animals. Biotic means living things.
They are taking in CO2 and are releasing Oxygen,Carbon,Mineral Elements such as Nitrogen and Phosphorus.They also give us shade and protection from the sun.
