Deforestation is the _________ problem in Northern mountain region.

• A. environmental
• B. ecological
• C. both a and b
• D. none of these

Answer 1

The correct option is A environmental

• Despite their immense value, nearly half of the world’s forests have been lost.
  
• What’s worse, we’re cutting them down at greater rates each year to plant crops, graze cattle and generate income from timber and other forest products.
  
• When forests are cleared, they emit CO2 back into the atmosphere and put humanity on a dangerous collision course with the worst of climate change.
  
• Deforestation accounts for about 11% of global greenhouse gas emissions caused by humans — comparable to the emissions from all of the cars and trucks on Earth combined.
