It has been estimated that ‘slash and burn’ agriculture is
used by up to 500 million people worldwide. The term describes the practice of
cutting and/or burning of natural vegetation for conversion into agricultural
fields. Besides the disastrous implications for forest ecosystems, the practice
can impact the atmosphere in two main ways if burning is implemented. Firstly
by causing air pollution from the smoke, and secondly by increasing carbon
dioxide in the atmosphere, which is a greenhouse gas and a driver of climate
change. Living trees also remove carbon dioxide from the atmosphere during
photosynthesis, and the process of ‘slash and burn’ effectively removes their
carbon capturing contributions to ameliorating climate change.

Answer: by given steroid injection to animals
<u>and </u>
increasing production of cheap calories of Sugar and Triglycerides for use in food products
The attempt by farmers to maximize profit prompted them to give hormones e.g streroids to animals to increase their biochemical reactions therefore the the products yields e.g they are giving steroids to poultry to improve chicken, eggs production;and to cattle for improved beef and milk production.
In order to obtain maximum sugar and fats productions, cheap calories forms of there are being produced. e,g fructose, maltose. if maltose is consumed in excess it leads to obesity, while fructose increases the level of cholesterol.These products requires a lot of processing with different chemical products which leads to health problems after consumption
