Detailed explanation-1: -Deforestation is the purposeful clearing of forested land. Throughout history and into modern times, forests have been razed to make space for agriculture and animal grazing, and to obtain wood for fuel, manufacturing, and construction. Deforestation has greatly altered landscapes around the world.
Detailed explanation-2: -Deforestation is the process in which large areas of forest lands are cleared for various human activities. Deforestation has many negative effects on our environment, like loss of habitat for animals and climate change.
