Illegal Logging in Indonesia

-Cause-Effect-Possible Solution-

Causes-Illegal logging is a bad way to make money. People tend to chop down trees but wouldn't plant back the trees to replace the trees they've chopped down. People take the teak and they sell it so they have money for their own needs. They just think about their needs but don't care about the environment.

Effects-people always chop down trees but not plant trees. If they continue to do it,soon the forests in Indonesia will all be gone so the animals will be lose their habitat and it would make the animals extinct. It would also cause global warming and natural disasters. If there is no more trees, there would be more landslides and floods.

Possible Solutions-these are some possible solutions:

- plant more trees in the place that can be plant

- less chop down trees

- make the furniture with other materials, less making furniture with wood

- replace the trees chopped

- the amount of trees chopped must have a limit
