How can deforestation be solved?

Answer 1

Deforestation is a problem that is not easily solved. One of the best ways to approach it is to help the people cutting down the trees to see the benefit in leaving the trees alone. Replacing logging with ecotourism is a helpful solution in many areas.

Recycling products made from wood is one way to reduce deforestation. Another way is by better management of grazing land. Better grassland practices means less forest needs to be cut down to be converted to grassland.

There are so many things that can be done to reduce deforestation. There is should be awareness created on the importance of forests which will promote planting of more trees.

To reduce deforestation, the corporations should stop making holiday resorts. Either that, or stop destroying the habitats around it because some people like a nice, nature feeling holiday.

Genghis Khan actually helped a lot with solving deforestation- he killed so many people that forests were able to completely regrow. Other approaches involve cutting down less trees, planting more trees, or using tree farms instead of natural forests.

Overgrazing of animals on the same patch of land should be restricted.

More and more trees should planted on the deforested land and in deserts.

You can have logging permits.

It is obviously possible to plant trees. But there are complicated economic factors in deciding how land should be used, and what role the forestry industry should play. As the human population of the world continues to increase, there will be more demand to convert forested land to human habitation, agriculture, or other uses. So really, the first step in solving deforestation would be a strategy to control the growth of the human population.
