What is a major harm of deforestation?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: Loss of biodiversity and adverse effects on climate

Deforestation means removing forests faster or more extensively than they can recover. A major consequence is habitat destruction: plants, animals, and microorganisms lose the conditions they need to survive, causing biodiversity loss. Fewer trees also remove less carbon dioxide from the atmosphere, and disturbed forests may release stored carbon, contributing to climate change. Tree roots normally help hold soil, regulate water movement, and protect land, so their removal can increase erosion rather than immediately improve fertility. Therefore, option B is correct. Option A is opposite to the usual effect, option C ignores erosion and nutrient loss, and option D reverses the habitat impact. The governing green-skills concept is conserving forests and ecosystem services.
