Forest Conservation?

Question

What children can do for conservation of forests?

Answer 1

I would think that planting trees would be a good thing. Even

certain plants would be great.I really get upset when i see

beautiful trees being cut down.They are what filters the air

that we breathe.When they remove an entire woods to put

in a shopping mall it also displaces alot of wild animals. That

is why people see animals in their back yards that one does

not normally see because they have nowhere to go.I hope this

will help you out.

Answer 2

Plant trees!

Answer 3

FOR CHILDREN THEY CAN HELP PLANT TREES AND NOT PLAYING OF MATCHES IN THE FOREST

Answer 4

Planting trees is good, but forest cleanup is great, most forests are littered with trash, that is harmfull to the soil, to wildlife, and overall degradory to the forest, anyone is capable of going into the woods with a trash bag and cleaning up the garbage careless, foolish people have thrown out there.

Answer 5

USE LESS PAPER WRITING PAPER TOILET PAPER RECYCLE

Answer 6

Become educated about the subject and purchase paper products from staples....they only purchase from companies that do not destroyed forests....

Answer 7

Children can stop eating at fast food restaurants!  Seriously, the industry uses and abuses more paper products than just about everyone else.

Also, children should be taught early how to recycle and reuse.

Good Luck!

Answer 8

wow children ¿¿¿,bug adults about recycling

i really dont know what children can do because adults can do so little

here is a story about deforestation and you will understand why it is so difficult to do anything.

we must look for ways to improve economic situations on the edges of Nature .

the only way to preserve the forrest is to devellop eco tourism under strict control that has limited acces ,and use the local people in the concept as guides ,hotel staff and get them to start home industries of artifacts .

eco tourism is the only concept that profits by a healthy back ground with out harming it

------------------------------...

trees are coming down all the time ,

in My town trucks loaded with huge logs of exotic timber leave the mountains with permits bought from corrupt oficials almost nightly

we can only guess at the exact amount but from my house we can see many bare patches on the mountains and the river is constantly muddy in the last 3 years ,because topsoils, without the protection of the forrests , is washed into the rivers ,

this is just one place and this is happening all over Mexico ,the Market for the wood being the USA.

here is a general note on deforestation

CAN DEFORESTATION BE STOPPED

Almost impossible

the Indians or local people would cut everything down and burn the forrest to replace it with harmfull short term farming killing the soil in no time

expanding populations and expanding farming ,that has to keep pace with the expanding populations are very strong forces that encroach upon the rainforest's

clearing them for farming and settlement areas .

that and the giant networks of roads that have exchanged forests for asphalt all over the planet

In Mexico is a famous jungle that the Media has been trying to save for years

the Naturists ,and the government ,keep watch .laws are made for protection the wild and to forbid logging.

TV put out a series of documentaries

there are campaigns in the News papers

and all of this has not made the slightest difference

Rainforest's always are in third world countries and always in third world countries corruption and the need for money s highest

the jungle gets smaller by the day

more and more farmers move in .and burn the trees

it is an impossible situation

as long as there is poverty and an increasing birth rate in these regions the destruction will continue

they are too easily tempted to sell of exotic animals to the unscroupelous people who buy them.for the market that exists in the USA.

REFORRESTATION

we must reforrest and at the same time reduce our carbon emissions.

most governments are aware of these and many first world countries now include programs to reduce their carbon emissions.

the world bank pays large subsidies for farmers to plant trees especially a tree called Paulownia elongate carolinia,because it is one of the better ones that capture carbon.

IN THE PAST

the sahara used to be forrests

arabia ,irak ,iran used to be fertile lands in biblical times

Ghengas Kahn burned all the forrests here and filled the well with water and so turning vast lands into dessert.

the Spanish Armada deforested Spain

.the Phoenician fleet deforested Lebanon

Madagascar a botanic paradise is now destroyed

the exotic animals sold or killed ,the forest slash and burned for agriculture ,the coastal water poluted by topsoils washed fronm the denuded moutains by the rains.

many many countries in Africa (because of poverty and war as well as greedy farming )

Borneo because of the expensive timber

india ,China ,Mexico ,South Americas Amazonia,

Europe because of civilization,USA,Japan because of overpopulation,

NOTE

1000 trees that are replanted do not come anywhere near as producing the same effect or fullfilling the same function ,as far as carbon absorbtion ,production of humidity,climatic effects as the absorbtion or release of heat ,as ONE SINGLE FULLY GROWN TREE.

people keep saying we are good we cut down a thousand trees and replanted 20 thousand more

This means nothing in terms of environmental effects.

it takes at least 10 to 20 years before one of these replanted trees makes the same impact as the ones that are removed Source(s) read a planet under stress ,plan B --by Lester E Brown.

it is in an Adobe print out as well on the net.

Vote against democrats.  Vote against socialism.  And lastly, lets all give up our cars and go back to living in the 18th century.  With the way we're handling the Muslim fanatics these days, we'll all be living in the middle ages very soon.
