Question

Which of the following is an effect of destruction of forests?

• A. Loss of livelihoods
• B. Loss of biodiversity
• C. Disparity in rainfall
• D. All of these

Answer 1

The correct option is D

All of these

Due to the destruction of forests, the locals who depend on forest products for their livelihood will lose it. Secondly, the biodiversity of both flora and fauna in the region is badly hit. Moreover, forests have a significant contribution in maintaining the water cycle and if they are disturbed, we may observe some disparity in rainfall in the area.
