Deforestation is a big deal. Who benefits? Who loses?, Do the benefits outweigh the costs? Are there any alternatives to current
VladimirAG [237]

The deforestation generally brings loses, and the costs outweigh the benefits, though there are some methods that can turn things around.

Explanation:

The deforestation is a huge problem. It occurs because of the human activities, be it agriculture, mining, industry, expending cities etc. While all these things are benefiting the humans on the short run, on the long run it is devastating. The soil is not of good enough quality, so it can be used only for few years, the mining causes enormous pollution which is destroying the environment on the long run, same is done by the industry, and the cities bring in all sorts of problems, always bringing in big losses for nature.

There are alternatives though, as the forests can be used and to benefit humanity, but also to remain in good condition, and with it the ecosystems. When the trees are cut, same number of trees should be planted on the same places, thus making the forests sustainable. Also, fruit forests can be created gradually, and they will provide both the humans and animals with free and organic food in abundance. This matters a lot because if methods like this are not implemented, the forests will disappear, ecosystems will be destroyed, the humans will be left without lot of resources, and there will dramatic changes of all sorts on the planet, all of which negative.

Forests that are being constantly cut down and are getting destroyed are:

  • Amazon rainforest
  • The Congo rainforest
  • The rainforests of Southeast Asia

How does ocean currents affect the climate of a continent?
Aleks [24]
The world’s ocean is crucial to heating the planet. While land areas and the atmosphere absorb some sunlight, the majority of the sun’s radiation is absorbed by the ocean. Particularly in the tropical waters around the equator, the ocean acts a as massive, heat-retaining solar panel. Earth’s atmosphere also plays a part in this process, helping to retain heat that would otherwise quickly radiate into space after sunset.
The ocean doesn't just store solar radiation; it also helps to distribute heat around the globe. When water molecules are heated, they exchange freely with the air in a process called evaporation. Ocean water is constantly evaporating, increasing the temperature and humidity of the surrounding air to form rain and storms that are then carried by trade winds, often vast distances. In fact, almost all rain that falls on land starts off in the ocean. The tropics are particularly rainy because heat absorption, and thus ocean evaporation, is highest in this area. Outside of Earth’s equatorial areas, weather patterns are driven largely by ocean currents. Currents are movements of ocean water in a continuous flow, created largely by surface winds but also partly by temperature and salinity gradients, Earth’s rotation, and tides (the gravitational effects of the sun and moon). Major current systems typically flow clockwise in the northern hemisphere and counterclockwise in the southern hemisphere, in circular patterns that often trace the coastlines. Ocean currents act much like a conveyer belt, transporting warm water and precipitation from the equator toward the poles and cold water from the poles back to the tropics. Thus, currents regulate global climate, helping to counteract the uneven distribution of solar radiation reaching Earth’s surface. Without currents, regional temperatures would be more extreme—super hot at the equator and frigid toward the poles—and much less of Earth’s land would be habitable.
