Logging in forests can lead to significant environmental consequences, including habitat destruction and loss of biodiversity, as many species rely on forest ecosystems for survival. It can also contribute to soil erosion and degradation, affecting water quality and leading to sedimentation in nearby rivers and streams. Additionally, logging can disrupt carbon storage, increasing greenhouse gas emissions and exacerbating climate change. The social implications can include the displacement of local communities and indigenous peoples who depend on forests for their livelihoods.
