Deforestation and wildlife.

Here is a vast controversy with environmentalists regarding Deforestation. Many people fight the benefits of deforestation, but they look positive but it is huge in it’s the negative effects. People who support deforestation may explore the economic benefits of deforestation. Deforestation may have economic benefits, but in spite of that, the negatives greatly outweigh the positives. Deforestation destroys natural habitats for animals. When a species' natural habitat is destroyed, it becomes hard for that species to adapt- causing death. The ultimate result of deforestation is a major decrease in biodiversity.

Here, Deforestation’s gain focuses on the economic benefits of deforestation. The lumber products are one of the most important constructive materials in human society, and that humans cannot live without lumber products. That is acceptable to a certain extent, but we are evolving into a paperless society. These days, almost everything is run electronically. For example, people can pay almost any bill online now; there is no paper involved in that. Also, when people vote, they do it electronically. There are no more paper ballots. There is no better reason to have to cut down so many trees when the human society is learning to live without paper products. Most paper companies today use recycled materials, not trees.

Another point is that deforestation can create many jobs. when environmentalists go against deforestation, it causes many people working with lumber products to lose those jobs. When deforestation is looked at in viewpoint, is it really worth it? People can always get up and find another job. When these people destroy the homes of millions, those animals have nowhere else to go. It is harder for animals to just go find a new home. It takes generations to get used to new surroundings.

When these workers lose their jobs there are many eco-friendly jobs that these workers could go into. For example, they could monitor the forests and wildlife instead of cutting down trees and destroying natural habitats. Another job choice is to work for a paper recycling company. Instead of cutting down trees, they can be saving trees by recycling used paper. Instead of destroying natural habitats, these workers could be working for a company that stands for something good.
