Do you knowthe condition of Kalimantan’s
forests? The current situation is very worrying. A
long time ago kalimantan’s forests were well known
for the greenness and lushness. Now its just hectares
of barren land, because of the act of illegal loggin.
We should know that illegal logging brings bad
effects on our eart.
First, illegal logging procokes forest
degration that causes natural disasters like floods,
landslides, etc. the barren land can’t keep the rain and
the water will erode the soil which will bring floods,
which cause many problems. The problems are
especially related to the health aspect; including
various diseases: diarrhea, tractus respiratory
infection, pest, trauma and son on. Moreover, many
people lose their homes and assets due to disasters.
Second, it causes forest animal to lose their
habitats because the forest they live is destructed by
illegal loggers. As a result, they may attack people
who live near the forest.
Third, illegal logging has led to increases of
the earth’s temperature, depletion of the ozone layer
and global warming. Global warming itself causes
many problems, such, as the melting of polar ice, the
increase of sea surfaces and human suffering from
various diseases like diseases.
Finally, earth will be deprived of oxygen
because the trees wich produce oxygen are cut down.
When this happens, a large number of people will be
infected by various repiratory diseases like asthma,
bronchitis, tubercholosis (TBC) and so on.
From the effects metioned, it is clear that
illegal logging harms everything on earth and
disturbs the peace of living. Therefore, we have to
stop it.
