Deforestation is the removal of trees for certain uses but resulting in damage to the land. It may or not be intentional at some times. The worst affect deforestation has on nature is loss of habitat for many different organisms. I observed that in Kalamazoo, Michigan a man bought a big piece of land full of trees. Residents in that area have claimed that there is deforestation in their backyards. The man chose to cut down over 20 trees to build some condos. The trees absorbed carbon dioxide and released oxygen making the peoples lives depend on them. This strange situation has brought sad faces to residents in that area. A local problem with deforestation is not many people are educated enough about deforestation and it may affect them in their near future
