My feeLings..

1-Imagine u are a part of a big orchard with lot of trees around.How do feel being cut?
Of course, I felt my life was over, more so if there is no successor who will replace me and my place will be destroyed just like that.

2-What will happen to all the animals which were taking shelter on you?

It destroys the natural habitat of the house and force them to relocate, sometimes they try to move into residential areas looking for food or shelter, and this can be very dangerous.

   Animals help in balancing our ecosystems, food chains and serve as food for us. So, it's really embarrassing for us to destroy animal habitats because we cut trees.Wildlife very important for natural beauty. Now a day we can see that many animals move into areas of refuge residetial them for food. There are also animals that destroy our crops.


3-What would be the surroundings like after u are cut?
 
Of course, the cut area will look empty without the green trees. In addition, soil erosion will occur because of not getting a strong grip, this will cause landslides. There is also the case that resulted in contamination of ground water if dirt flowing into drains and rivers. This is so that pollute our drinking water because the river is the main source of our drinking source.



4-What change will take place in the environment after u are cutter?

Tropical forests are home to millions of native (indigenous) people who make their livings through subsistence agriculture, hunting and gathering, or through low-impact harvesting of forest products like rubber or nuts. Deforestation in indigenous territories by loggers has triggered conflict. Forest preservation can be socially divisive, as well.National and international governments and aid agencies struggle with questions about what level of human presence, if any, is compatible with conservation goals in tropical forests, how to balance the needs of indigenous peoples with expanding rural populations and national economic development, uninhabited protected areas residents should be the highest priority of conservation efforts in tropical forests.
The changes evident on the felling of the existence of a new development. For instance, construction of new houses, schools and shops to create a site placement and some are made ​​entirely of industrial areas.

5-Message you would like to give to people who are cutting down trees.
     I think everyone should be concerned with this problem. This is because there are too many illegal deforestation by developers who cared only for their own interests. They know only profit from thinking about the consequences.The government must do something about deforestation. The authorities should  monitor these activities more frequently to take appropriate action. For example, to enforce laws, increasing fines, suspend or revoke the license for the illegal felling of treesThe government must do something about deforestation.
   Moreover,we must involved and learn more about conservation from organizations such at Rainforest Action Network, Rainforest Alliance, Wildlife Conservation Society and Conservation International.That may be hard as a forest equal to the size of 20 football or rugby fields are lost every minute. Everyone reading, complain to the government in letter/email/phone,etc.You can plant more trees and cut down fewer trees.
Cut down the trees at a slower rate and make sure you are planting new ones and regenerating the forest at the same rate of even faster than you are cutting it down.Start a recycling project in your community, if it is not already in place. Some states in the US will not accept


 6-What do u thing the use of technology in reducing and minimizing th eproblem? 
According to the FAO (2005), deforestation, mainly conversion of forests to agricultural land, continues at an alarming rate of approximately 13 million hectares per year (for the period 1990–2005).  Deforestation results in immediate release of the carbon originally stored in the trees as CO2 emissions (with small amounts of CO and CH4), particularly if the trees are burned and the slower release of emissions from the decay of organic matter.  The IPCC WGIII (2007) estimated emissions from deforestation in the 1990s to be at 5.8 GtCO2/yr.  The IPCC also notes that reducing and/or preventing deforestation is the mitigation option with the largest and most immediate carbon stock impact in the short term per hectare and per year globally as the release of carbon as emissions into the atmosphere is prevented.

The agenda item on “Reducing emissions from deforestation in developing countries and approaches to stimulate action” was first introduced into the COP agenda at its eleventh session in Montreal (December 2005).  The governments of Papua New Guinea and Costa Rica, supported by 8 other Parties, through their submission FCCC/CP/2005/MISC.1, requested for this issue to be taken up on the agenda.  This proposal received wide support from Parties and there was general agreement on the importance of the issue in the context of climate change mitigation, particularly in light of the large contribution of emissions from deforestation in developing countries to global greenhouse gas emissions.  The COP established a contact group on this item which drafted conclusions on initiating a process to address the issue of reducing emissions from deforestation. 

 7-In your opinoin,blog is able to stimulate awareness among community. Eloborate
In my own Opinion blog we want to stimulate debate on environmental issues and discuss how we can all make a positive contribution towards the pursuit of an ecologically sustainable future. Besides helping you to find green, fair trade, organic and ethical provider.Moreover, blog will able to dedicate to presenting pertinent information on the clean energy economy and also social enterprise whose aim is to raise awareness about global warming and climate change.
