Forest plays an important role for the development of any country. It is a natural resource which is gifted by Allah the Almighty. Trees take carbon dioxide and release oxygen. Actually they are the beauty of nature which make the environment clean and finished the pollution of the country.

According to the experts, 25% of the total area of the country should be covered by forest but unfortunately in Pakistan the total area of the forest is only 4% still they are being cut increasingly. Due to this the weather has changed and the rain is stopped. Pollution is being increased day by day. The clearness of environment is being dirty. On the other hand, the people are cutting the trees for their own benefits.

According to the experts in 2050 Pakistan will lose a great percentage of water. Just because of deforestation, the ratio of rain is low. In different areas of the country, there is lack of water and the public is suffering a lot of problems.

At last, it is my humble request to the government of Pakistan to take a serious action against deforestation otherwise the country will suffer in further due to lack of water or pollution.
