Freya Paka jeez that was a quick reply. Tbh I feel 60% dumber since lockdown
Hi everyone from online learning
ayyy
yooo
Heyyy
Hey

yes lol init
Yes lol
ahah lol

if we dont stop deforestation, they might not survive any longer.
who is here in quarantine because there science teacher sent u the link lol
Science? I have geography
@@lennoni_ same.
same lol
WHO Is in ONLINE classes AND WATCHING RPTHIS FOR revision :(
There are many negative impacts of deforestation. Make me sad :(
People now: Hey, we have plenty of trees!
People in 3000: I BUY OXYGEN EVERYDAY!
ever seen the Lorax lol
So true
I have witnessed this in Africa on a micro-level. I have seen land cleared for agriculture with an immediate drying up of once permanent streams, thus illuminating the only water sources for miles. I have witnessed the shortening of the raining season along with the extension and increased severity of the dry season in West Africa. I have seen the desert expand southward as the savanna turns into desert. The longer term consequences will affect us all globally.

So?? Who gives a fk?
Plant more trees!!
You should
Old growth forest bio-diversity cannot be replanted, once gone its gone forever.
@tree slayer why???
In your yard ok
Trees take years to grow.

This is a great video that will inspire many children and adults!
30% of planet's LAND area is forests, so roughly 8-9% of the planet's surface is forest.

And unfortunately it's because of us humen😭
My response after seeing this video is that I am concerned about the deforestation, because forests play an important role in supporting life on earth. Forests are a source of oxygen that we breathe to survive. There will be many problems that arise if we continue to use the existing forest without replanting it. These problems are like the glass effect that arises from human activities that produce CO2 gas. If deforestation continues, no one absorbs CO2 further, the effect of these greenhouse gases cancels global fires which have an impact on glaciers, drought, forests, causing habitat for these animals to become extinct and causing the ecosystem on earth to become unbalanced.
and, the number one cause of deforestation is animal agriculture. Stopping the consuming of animals saves forests.
exactly that's the most important point or cause in this chain of effects, rebeca. especially bc exploiting sentients atrociously as calories converters should be considered as (and it is) the main cause to these consequences bc requires many times the resources amounts or calories inputs compared with many times LESS calories outputs (or it takes many times input plant calories per corpse output calorie (depends on types of organisms how many times, usually is between 15 and 25 times more plants calories to obtain 1 calorie of corpse compounds and tissues )).
Shut up llama
We loved the video, because we are learning about animals and their homes. - Love PYP2 A all the way from Norway, CIS Moss!
This is so relevant. We must protect our environment if we want to live longer!
This is so sad, what can be done in our every day lives to help?
plant trees, sign environemtnal petitions, go vegan, use public transportation
And don’t eat products with palm oil👍
play despacito
If you see evidence of illegal logging, report it to your local authorities. (in the U.S., it's the D.E.C., Dept. of Environmental Conservation.)
Destroy the logging machinery and the trucks.
save the environment
Thanks to this video about deforestation. This helps us understand the problems that we will face if humans continue global deforestation. It has many effects on animals. It causes of habitat destruction, agribusiness. This will reduced food availability, etc. Let's do our part by sharing this video so people are aware of the problem we will be facing if deforestation continues.
When trees are felled, they do NOT release their carbon into the atmosphere. They do so, if they are burnt, or if they rot. Using timber for long term building material, to name one example, does in fact store the carbon, as long as the wood stays in its form. There are obviously still many reasons why deforestation and industrial scale timber harvestment have some big Issues, but i just wanted to correct this a little.
ok
the problem is fewer trees means less photosynthesis, more global warming and less biodiversity. Storing carbon in wooden structures is not helpful ...
@@catherinehall6119 also I just wanted to correct how they said it in the video because it was just not correct and I expect more of national geographic :D
Very nice explanation ... Better to understand.
This video is very very important of study thanks for video 👍👍😀
Hi! I just wanna say, this video is very interesting. thanks for reminding me how important it is to protect the forest. Also made me realize the impact of that.
Sometimes when I’m lonely I will shave one leg so it feels like I’m sleeping with a woman.
Verry important to protect our environment ❤❤we live longer you want..i love nature so much.

I have to write a one page essay on this for spring break hw
Interesting video..may I take some parts of the video for my assignment? Thank you..
What this video mentions only briefly is how not all forestry and logging activities lead to deforestation. Deforestation occurs when the land is converted from forest land into another landuse. This is primarily happening in second and third world where they lack other opportunities for national income such as manufacturing, tech, etc. So land is cleared and converted into other uses such as cattle or plantations. Modern forestry in developed countries is based on 100+ years of science and experience to ensure that we will have forests in perpetuity. There are third party certifications that allow you to see that the wood based products you are purchasing are sourced sustainably. Sustainable Forestry Initiative (SFI) and Forest Stewardship Council (FSC) are two of the prominent ones. So next time you see a clearcut, don't just assume that it will never grow trees again, it is more then likely that it will be replanted to grow trees for the next generation.
It is also worth noting that if a tree is cut and manufactured into a long lasting product, such as lumber, plywood, etc, that the carbon contained in that product is sequestered from the atmosphere. Then if a tree is planted in the first trees place, that tree will begin using carbon from the atmosphere to grow, all while the first tree's carbon is still being stored in the long lasting product. This means that a properly managed working forest can actually be a carbon sink rather than a source.
We aren't talking pine forests here, old growth rainforests flora bio-diversity cannot be replanted, once its gone its gone, too many rare flora and faunas in there.
@@Ovalbugmannagree with you on this topic. The amount of diversity in most of the worlds biomasses and ecosystems were built over thousands of years. This is something that will affect us over the long term. We are seeing these affects now with global supply chain challenges and the lack of access to clean water. These ecosystems are vital to survival of our species and every other living organism. Without our diverse ecosystems and biomasses our world and life as we know it would cease to exist. This is the Earths 6th mass extinction event. By 2100 we will see temperatures rise by more than 1 degree celsius.
um dia as florestas não conseguirão mais se sustentarem devido aos desmatamentos 😢
amazing wonderful
If the trees go down,we go down with them....
whos here 2020 large up
And once again, most of it could be solved(or at least partially) by simply restricting population growth...
Actually, there is more than enough food and space for people, eating livestock is the #1 problem.
Or we can just eat plant based diets. Animal agriculture is clearly the issue.
we need thanos
Michal Šeps Or vertical construction.
Michal Šeps yes you are right. Recycling, and reforestation also are key.
2019 : Brazil's Amazon rainforest has seen a record number of fires this year...
I totally agree with this
Good explain 👏
Well, Amazon is contributing BIG TIME to deforestation with all those cardboard boxes that they use. And they DON'T use recycled cardboard either (I researched it).
Very nice planting the trees
Great video ✌🏻👍
SAVE THE TREES!!!!
Watch "The Lorax" by Dr Seuss
Personally I think the movie sucks, I suggest reading the book instead.
Joshua Cueva Why?
Hi! Can I use portion or clips from your channel that has something to do about destruction of natural resources because of human’s irresponsible use of nature. We’ll be using the clips for the video we are planning to make soon. Thanks ! Hoping for your response

Hutan sangat berperan penting bagi kehidupan makhluk hidup. Seperti yang telah dikatakan dalam video tersebut, bahwa hutan adalah habitat atau tempat tinggal bagi 80% tumbuhan dan hewan . Penggundulan hutan dapat menimbulkan efek yang sangat luar biasa. Efek yang akibatkan penggundulan hutan yaitu emisi gas rumah kaca yang menyebabkan efek rumah kaca. Seperti yang kita ketahui, efek rumah kaca berkaitan erat dengan pemanasan global. Oleh karena itu, pemanasan global akan semakin bertambah tiap tahunnya. Selain itu, efek sampingnyalagi adalah kepunahan. Sekitar 4 sampai 6 ribu spesies telah punah akibat penggundulan hutan. Sehingga keanekaragaman hayati dalam hutan tidaklah seimbang.
Forests are very important for the life of living things. As has been said in the video, that the forest is a place to live for 80% of plants and animals. Deforestation can have biggest effects. The effect from deforestation is the emission of greenhouse gases which causes the greenhouse effect. As we know, the greenhouse effect is closely related to global warming. Therefore, global warming will increase every year. Besides, another side effect is extinction. About 4 to 6 thousand species have become extinct due to deforestation. So that the biodiversity in the forest is not balanced.
This a learning experience
Imagine being the smartest creature ever existed yet doing something like Deforestation that will end us and the most of other lives on Earth
great video and i love the sloths, also sick voice you sound great
ONLY 1 tree should be removed from ground every 33 feet! Stumps should not be left behind as this space is needed for new saplings! The thickest and tallest trees should NOT be cut down so the healthiest seeds can hit the ground and grow!
I like the sloth :)
VERY INTERESTING!!!!!!!!!
LOOOOL
The ecosystems will find it hard to recover and adapt if there are 1,000 acres of deforested trees,
what an alarming rate.
I love forest's. =)
Soon there will be no more because of humans.
And because of Capitalism.
Don't worry if there is no forest then there will not even human

Corruption played a huge role in Sri Lanka. For instance the destruction of the outer boundaries of the Wilpattu national forest complex, to settle in so called 'original' settlers.
Super
I think education and awareness is very important. A topper of class would not be able to give simple answer on environment or animals it is because school board is not supporting education related to environment and are sharing useless information. Any well educated person won, t be able to answer important information about animals. By making a mandatory subject related flora and fauna ,which should be equally important like maths . This would not only save environment but also wildlife
