Why you should conserve trees?

Answer 1

The reason to conserve trees is much like the reason to conserve anything else, which is that if you don't conserve them, you will run out of them. Our society needs trees, as a source of wood that is used to manufacture a great many different things (house frameworks, furniture, paper, etc.) and also as a food source, since many trees produce edible fruit. In addition, trees help to prevent soil erosion, they help to keep the air oxygenated, and they absorb carbon dioxide (of course, if the wood that they produce is eventually burned, then the absorbed carbon dioxide will be released into the air again - but not all of it is burned, by a long shot). Trees are also valued as sources of shade, to prevent overheating in the summer, and even for purely esthetic reasons, as a decorative element in landscaping.
