Deforestation. People are cutting down to many trees. People and animals are losing there homes. They are cutting down trees to make more land for homes.

Forests are a very important part of our existence. They provide us with many of the things we need to survive. That is why we have to preserve them.

Steps for Preparation Deforestation Debate Environmentalists vs. Business People

Mr. Loeke Comes From the EPA to Talk About Habitats, Soil, and Tree Health Did you know that 10 billion organisms live in 2 grams of soil?

What is a Debate? Issue Sides Pleading their case Controlled Argument Sometimes Planned or Structured Differing Opinions Can be a Moderator-To Pose Questions

Why Might a Business Person Need to Cut Down Trees? Money To make a living Feed their family Prime land for development To support their company: making pencils, paper, lumber business, furniture making business, cardboard business

Environmentalists and Trees Study Research Save the trees Protect the wildlife Need forests for breathing and beauty Need trees to support soil-nutrients and minerals Need soil to grow the plants and make homes for the organisms Need trees to keep the life cycle going Future generations will get food, air, survival, animal habitats and joy from trees

How Deforestation Can Affect the Environment Over logging takes away the beauty Pollution in the water table from run-off due to logging equipment Paint and Chemicals have no natural barrier without trees Deforestation increases the amount of CO2 in the atmosphere hurting the ozone Deforestation decreases the amount of oxygen in the air Deforestation makes erosion worse

Brainstorming Debate Questions How do you feel about the thousands of trees that have been cut down due to deforestation? Considering development what is the ratio of mature trees removed to seedling renewed? What do you think about deforestation and reforestation? Do you think deforestation is bad? Are there concerns you have when trees are removed from certain areas?

Debate Questions When the word “forest” comes to mind, what do you think of? Can you tell me about the plans for the new development? What are you views on animal habitats? Does the new development have a connection to the environment?

Research Begins... What’s your view? Environmentalist How much oxygen do trees produce? Changing a monarchs habitat What value are trees to the environment: Nutrients, air, habitats, CO2

Research Continues What’s your view? Business Person How much money can I make logging? How much money do I need to run my business? Compare cost and value of trees How much and what do you gain from logging, land, and development?
