"According to the current deforestation rate, the world's rainforests can completely disappear within one hundred years," National Geographic said. The world's forest plays an important role in providing basic daily funds such as food, water, evacuation centers, clothing, traditional medicine, and most importantly it is balanced with the world environment . Impact The two major causes of forest degradation and extinction in the world are deforestation and illegal logging.
Many government agencies are cracking down on illegal logging to protect forests. However, all kinds of lawful or illegal logging can lead to deforestation. Logging companies indiscriminately cut down to meet the needs of the timber market. This will not restore and maintain opportunities for local wildlife and trees. Therefore, it always leads to loss of wildlife. When the woodland area is removed it causes the soil to be exposed to sunlight, which is very dry and eventually becomes infertile due to the loss of volatile nutrients like nitrogen. Also, when it rains, the remaining nutrients flowing into the waterway along with the rain are washed away. Therefore, simply repotting trees may not solve the problem of deforestation. If the trees are ripe, the soil will contain absolutely no essential nutrients. After all, cultivation on this land becomes impossible, and the land is wasted.
Today orangutans are at great risk for illegal logging, deforestation and illegal trade. In order to solve these problems, people need to know more about these serious problems. In addition, the Indonesian government enacted strict laws on illegal logging and illegal trade, strengthened support for rehabilitation centers to increase the number of orangutans.
International trade in illegal logging and illegal logging is a major problem for many timber producing countries. Illegal logging can degrade forests, spend billions of dollars on governments, promote corruption, and finance armed conflicts. It hinders some sustainable development of the world's poorest countries. In the first event of Global Witness, we investigated how "disputed timber" provided funds to Khmer Rouge in Cambodia. Our survey led to the closure of the border between Thailand and Cambodia, which in the end led to the end of the genocide system. We also transferred to Charles Taylor, who is using the illegal wood industry funds for the war in Liberia. Subsequent investigation, in 2006 the timber traffic at the border of China - Burma border was closed.
