Essay Suggesting Solutions to Problems

Deforestation

It is wll-kown that Global Warming is the major issue of the Climate subject, but it is not the only one. Deforestation is an issue that is raising by the year, and growing into a similiar problem.

One of the main causes of deforestation has always been the need that society in general has for paper. Everyone needs paper to live in the consumer society and the only way to have paper is by taking down some trees. But it's not the only way.

Paper is the main product that can be recycled into new paper as many times you want, or even reused.

It can be reused; if you have a piece of written paper just turn it over so you can take the most profit of it by writting on both sides.

But it is not all paper. Deforastation ca be fought be y simple planting another tree. Did you knew that if everyone planted a tree, there would be six bilion more trees and they would remove 27 millions metric tons of carbon dioxide?

It is not the end of the forests but it could be in a few decades if we don't give at least a try to these solutions.
