Question

The passage explains how deforestation causes land pollution. Identify the statement in the passage that is incorrect. We depend on trees for many things, including life. Trees absorb oxygen from the air during the day to prepare their food and release large amounts of carbon dioxide. Trees provide wood that humans use and habitats for many animals, insects, and birds. Trees also help replenish soil and prevent important nutrients from being washed away. Unfortunately, we have cut down millions of acres of trees for wood, construction, farming, and mining purposes and have not always planted new trees to replace them. This is a type of land pollution. To lower desertification, we should plant new trees. Every time we cut down a tree, we should plant a new one.
