At present, the most widely used dataset to estimate global rubber-related deforestation has been derived using a ‘land balance’ model11. This model combines remotely sensed data on tree cover loss with non-s
This article reviews evidence concerning the extent of deforestation in the Amazon region of Brazil, based on 1975, 1978 and 1980 LANDSAT satellite images and surveys by the National Institute for Space Research (INPE). It shows that INPE underestimates the extent because satellites cannot detect ...
The loss of habitat for the animals can lead to species extinct as they have no place to stay. There will also be a negative impact for medicinal research because some plants have medicinal values and can be acquired in the rainforest. Withdeforestationon the rise, the probability of getting...
Rocky desertification is the ultimate result of deforestation and soil loss in the carbonate rock areas. It has tremendously affected the hydrologic, soil, and ecologic conditions at various scales and consequently causes more geologic hazards such as droughts, floods, landslides, and land subsidence....
The burning of fossil fuels such as coal and oil, and deforestation over the last 200 years has caused the concentrations of heat-trapping "greenhouse gases" to increase significantly in our atmosphere. These gases prevent heat from escaping to space. Greenhouse gases are necessary in our lives ...
Moreover, human activities such as obstructed or poorly maintained drainage channels, river encroachment, improper land use, unmanaged sand mining, and deforestation in upstream regions exacerbate the impacts (Tingsanchali, 2012). Additionally, climate change has exacerbated the frequency and intensity ...
4. Global Warming Cause:Deforestation, especially tropical forests for wood, pulp, and farmland The use of forests for fuel (both wood and for charcoal) is one cause of deforestation, but in the first world, our appetite for wood and paper products, our consumption of livestock grazed on for...
Deforestation in the municipality of Puerto Guzmán, located in the Colombian Amazon, has increased significantly in recent years with negative consequences for the region’s ecosystems. This paper article aims to explore local perceptions of the causes and actors of deforestation in Puerto Guzmán thro...

Below, we have discussed a few of the major causes that result in greenhouse effects. Carbon dioxide (CO2) Methane (CH4) Nitrous oxide (N2O) Fluorinated gases Agriculture Deforestation Water vapor (H2O) Fuel Electricity Framing Burning of Fossil Fuels ...
