• Forestry is an important economic segment in various industrial countries example in Germany, forestry cover nearly a third of the land area.
• Wood is the most important renewable resource and forests supports more than a million jobs and about €170 billion in yearly turnover.

Main causes are:

• Agricultural sector
• Industry(forestry)
• Construction of more houses
• Increase in population
• Destructive method of cutting trees
• Increase in different types of unsafe gases.
