breath and our air would be polluted even more with all the car and factories that we use all around the world brings many gases that have chemicals in it that pollute our air. Deforestation also change our climate. Without the tree the climate will alter the region cool climates may get a lot hotter and hot places may get lot cooler. Soil erosion can also lead to silt entering the lakes and any other water sources that we use. This can decrease our local water quality get lower…
