How does tree planting help the environment?
If trees die the world dies the world dies and it has already started....(this is one of the causes of global warming and soon to be global control). you kill the trees, you kill your country and your people bottom line.
Without plants and trees there can be no life! (species cannot live)
*Plants recycle your waste and provide us with clean all natural oxygen!
It filters the water you drink (for ex. Say someone poisons the water source and no trees to take toxins out your dead as a doornail depending on how potent the poison and how much. So time would be a coefficient.) the more trees get cut the more diseases arrive.
See info below:
* Plants and trees give us life, Shelter, water, medicine, food and protection. (wood an leaves for Building materials, fuel/gas and oils). Roots like cassava/yucca as well as skins from oranges, lemons, cucumber, mint bush and grapefruits trees for example make natural shampoos and soaps and cleaning products. Leaves, barks and roots and fruit skin for Medicine, Clothing (trees like Crocus, cotton, Hemp, Flamboyant, Fern, Willow, Ficus, Rattan, Bamboo, Hibiscus, coconut trees to name a few
* Trees and plants also provide food for animals we depend on for material from domestic animals that shed including Sheeps, Camels, furry animals like Dogs, cats, llama, Alpaca and spiders and even horses, donkeys,elephants, tigers, lions and zebras.

* Plants and trees cool the earth and can stop global warming and diseases like cancers, lupus, Alzheimer and baldness. (Clean air, provided that you exercise regularly and consume a healthy diet is the key) the taller the grass the longer you live. Because grass provides low level of good nitrate, a natural substance mixed with the atmosphere during rainfall. Just imagine living to be 700 years old. It can be done if grass is not cut below 6 feet in unused spaces.
see info below:
1000 acres of certain crops can provide 5000 gallons of water to a large farm grounds for, vines like those in global jungles also is a source of water.
*Abundant trees and plant- provide rain even in off seasons once there is enough and they must be close together.
*Trees that can withstand wind can protect you home from flooding and keep your roof from ending up a mile down the road in the event of a storm. Some trees that can protect your home are as follows.

*Plants convert carbon dioxide to oxygen
*The provide you with natural air-condition when used as shade trees as appose to an air-conditioning the number one cause of death in the USA

* Trees can be used to leverage something in life saving emergency. For example: a large tree can stop the average car or buggy from completely falling of a road due to a broken rail or on hanging off a cliff. Provided you have a durable rope and the know how.
* As mentioned above they also provide animals with food, which in turn end up on our table as well - they also contribute to secondary food sources such as milk, which comes from cows which eat grass.
* THERE ARE PLENTY OF OTHER THINGS plants can do- just take a moment to think about a world without plants! Just imagine yourself not existing. If trees die the world dies. If plastic reign and are not recycled properly as oppose to glass natural. Plastic can diminish natural food resources like the fish!
I hope you learned something today. Plant a tree today. Some take 200 years to grow and under 6 minutes to cut if you have the right tools.

No, it is not justified. Deforestation could lead to many problems like global warming, erosion of soil and desertification. Floods and droughts also occur due to deforestation. Trees filter the earth and if the filtration is stopped what could happen? Loss of biodiversity is another problem which will have to be faced if trees are cut down.
How can resistance to DDT evolve in mosquitoes?
It works in this case just as it does in resistance to antibiotics. When the environment is changed, those living in it will be either affected or not. Some bacteria or mosquitoes will not be affected and some will. The affected ones will die and the others will not. Those that don't die will have genes that allow this to happen for them. They will pass those genes on to their offspring. Those offspring will also be resistance to what every pesticide or antibiotic being used to kill them. You are seeing actual natural selection and evolution at work.
Penicillin was used in WW2 in 1943. Today, there are bacteria that are resistant to every antibiotic that we have. Some are resistant to 23.
Unless the insecticide kills every mosquito, the ones that survive will grow in numbers and we will have to find something else. The most we usually can hope for is just to be able to control the numbers.
What is the word for clearing land of trees?
deforistation, (related: commercial logging, poverty, destruction)
How does animal size affect metabolism?
The larger an animal the smaller the ratio of surface area to mass and therefore and lower the percent loss of heat from the body. This is due to the mathematical relation between surface area ( length2) to volume (length3). In mammals that thermo regulate (maintain thermal homeostasis) by modulating their metabolism, smaller animals must be more active per gram and consume more food per gram body weight.
How does habitat destruction happen?
the main causes of habitat destruction are logging, overfishing, hunting and clearing areas.

What animals are endangered from cutting down trees?
Lots. Especially birds, and squirels, and those trees can crush on little animals too. Plus without trees, we won't be able to brethe! And with very little trees, animals won't be able to hide from hunters very well. So I'm probably guessing that ALOT of animals will lose their homes if we cut down trees to make our homes. Possibilities are that lots of animals will be extinct if we keep cutting down trees.
How is animal life affected by deforestation?
Deforestation affects wildlife by causing them to loose their habitats this means that they have to find somewhere else to live or become extinct. When they move to a new habitat it will take them a while to adapt and get used to living in that environment. Decreasing biodiversity and the animals the environment gets affected hugely. Some animals live in certain climates so it is hard for them to adjust to new homes due to deforestation.
Forest are natural habitat to many types of animals.That is why where there is deforestation,many animals are left without shelter.Through the years it is estimated that millions of planys and animals have been wiped out.

I'm not a tree hugger, but my respect for the the goodness, my GOD, has given all of us, keeps me and all those like minded to vote, read, listen, and think globeable, and act locally.
Why are butterflies important to the rainforest?
The Royal Botanical Gardens, Kew in England has a very detailed profile of the rafflesia plant. According to Kew, this plant is native to southeastern Asia and is actually a parasitic plant. It has the distinction of being the largest flower in the world. The flowers smell like rotting flesh which attracts carrion-flies who pollinate the flowers. The flower buds can be used as medicine, but some of the medicinal uses are believed to be tied to superstition more than to sound medical science. Small mammals are able to eat the berries produced from the flower. More than anything though, rafflesia has become a popular symbol and pictures of it are published in tourist brochures and on postage stamps. Ecotourism revenue that helps support local residents is also generated from tourists who visit forested areas to see rafflesia flowers in the wild.
I also read through a short encyclopedia-style article on The National Library Board of Singapore's Infopedia website. It says that rafflesia flower buds are eaten as a delicacy in Thailand. It also gives several specific examples of how the rafflesia is used as a medicine: childbirth, energy drink, aphrodisiac. This website agrees with Kew in saying that there is no scientific evidence to support the claim of any actual medical powers. Ironically, several potentially toxic chemicals have been identified within the buds and flowers. So, you may want to think twice before eating a rafflesia!

sorry...that's all i have but good luck getting more answers!
Cloud forests are very moist. As a result of the boggy soil and wet climate, there are lots of fungus, ferns and orchids. It gets its name from the low clouds that surround the canopy layer of the forest. (These clouds are also called fog) Even though it is a rainforest, most of the precipitation these forests get are from fog drip, which is when fog condenses on leaves and the water falls to the ground. Cloud forests usually grow on mountainous land, are either tropical or subtropical.
How does deforestation affect orangutans?
Orangutans are animals adapted to live in the forest, they can not live anywhere else.
If the forest is all cut down all the Orangutans that lived in it will die because they have nowhere left to live.
Humans are rapidly cutting down all the forests that Orangutans live in and this means that if we do not stop doing this Orangutans will become extinct.
The people who live in the places where Orangutans are to be found know this yet they still cut down the forests, When there is not more forest and no more Orangutans, this will be their fault and there will be environmental consequences - they will pay for this stupidity.
--------------------------------------------------------------------
In many ways have they been affected. Most of the population of the orangutans are being killed and the population is decreasing. So if the deforestation keeps on going on and on and on. Then in about two decades they will probably most definitely be extinct.
