cutting down trees can make floods worse because the soil absorbs the water,water on the leaves evaporates and does not reach the ground,the roots take in the water and the braches stops the water reaching the ground
Buildings and towns can make floods worse by increasing surface runoff due to impermeable surfaces like pavement and concrete, which prevent water from being absorbed into the ground. Additionally, if developments are located in flood-prone areas or if drainage systems are inadequate or poorly maintained, this can contribute to flooding. Finally, alterations to natural drainage patterns or waterways can also exacerbate flood risk in built-up areas.
Some ways to prevent floods include building and maintaining flood defenses like levees and dams, implementing land-use planning to avoid building in flood-prone areas, and improving drainage systems to manage stormwater. Additionally, enhancing early warning systems and community preparedness can help mitigate the impacts of floods.
If floods are a frequent thing, on a long term basis, growing trees may slow down the force of the flow of water. Example- stretches of mangroves prevented damage along Indian coastline during the Tsunami. The building of gateways, a sluice or a spillway to carry water away from towns/communities will help in preventing a major flood.
Humans impact coniferous forests through activities such as logging, urbanization, and forest fires. Deforestation for timber and development reduces the size of these forests, while urban expansion fragments habitats and disrupts wildlife populations. Additionally, improperly managed forest fires can destroy large areas of coniferous forests.
Floods can have both positive and negative impacts on the environment. They can help to replenish soil nutrients, support biodiversity, and shape landscapes. However, floods can also lead to erosion, water pollution, habitat destruction, and displacement of wildlife.
Cutting down trees takes up less water from the gound which causes floods
heavy rainfall, monsoons , soil erosion, cutting of trees are the main causes of floods in rural areas
trees absorb water and it trees are cut down, then the trees can't absorb water so the water gets absorbed by the ground but that isn't enough so the water just travels causing floods
No, it would not. However, cutting trees causes global warming. Global warming causes the polar ice caps to melt. When the ice caps melt, the sea level would rise. If the sea level rises, floods would occur. However, floods are not tsunamis, but tsunami causes floods. Therefore, we can conclude that cutting of trees will cause floods, which are about the same effects of a tsunami.
There are many ways how humans can contribute to floods...one way could be cutting down trees. Trees help control floods, without trees...the space is cleared and the flood is faster, with soil (can also make an ugly mudslide/flood)

Building animal shelters. Cutting down trees. ect.
deforestation mean cutting the trees , cutting the trees means less oxygen and more carbon dioxide , more carbon dioxide means global worming , more global worming means more floods
its harm to the atmosphere and change many nature..
Building insurance typically covers any kind of damage that is not directly preventable by the owner of the building. This can be anything from fires and floods to trees falling upon the building and malicious behavior from other citizens.
Cutting down the trees and plants, polluting the environment, killing the animals, building over it etc.
"Hello, people cutting trees!"
