Question:
I am looking for information regarding the effects on
the deciduous forests from humans. I am looking for current information
as to what impact people have had on these forest regions. I thank you
in advance for your time and answer.
Replies:
There are direct impacts such as forest clearing for agriculture and
forestry practices, and indirect effects such as pollution, acid rain, and
climate change. You could probably search www.google.com for "anthropogenic
effects forests"
