Cutting down trees can cause soil erosion. Soil erosion is when there is rainfall and since there are no tree roots to take in the water, it washes away the soil causing runoff's which can turn into flash floods. Soil erosion can cause trouble for it would be hard to grow plants in that same area.

Trees are also homes to animals, some of them endangered. When you take away their homes there are forced to find new ones and sometimes end up coming in contact with in a human residence. This is could be a threat to humans (if the animal is dangerous) and a threat to the animal it self.

Trees also take in c02 (also called carbon sink). Cutting down trees means there is more carbon dioxide in the air which plays apart in global warming.

Trees provide many of our needs for us such as paper,timber, furniture to even wood fuels. When there is a shortage of trees, there could be problems with big business and economic problems, too.

And trees can get seriously injured because of people cutting them down. D:
