THE ROLE OF DEFORESTATION IN CLIMATE CHANGE
- 1. student, group 2102 Department of information service and public relations Uzbekistan State World Languages University
Description
This article examines the significant impact of deforestation on climate
change, exploring the complex interactions between forest ecosystems and the
Earth's climate system. It delves into the mechanisms through which deforestation
contributes to greenhouse gas emissions, alters regional climate patterns, and
exacerbates global warming. Additionally, the article discusses the socio-economic
drivers of deforestation, including agricultural expansion, logging, and infrastructure
development, and their implications for forest conservation and climate mitigation
efforts. By synthesizing scientific research and empirical evidence, the article aims
to elucidate the critical role of forests in regulating the Earth's climate and
underscore the importance of addressing deforestation as a key strategy for climate
change mitigation and adaptation.
