forest is a buffer on earth to air and water availability. these days the earth was getting hotter, the government began to worry about global warming, so then appears the movement one man one tree or movement to plant thousand tree. illegal logging is a major cause of global warming? or are there other causes? what is your opinion ?

Illegal logging is rampant in my country. When the government refused to issue licenses for felling logs, people resort to thieving. There is reason to believe that due to this indiscriminate felling of tress in the jungle, it gave rise to global warming.

if there is no strong protection for the forest then the next 10 years we will lose this valuable asset on earth.

I don't believe in man made global warming. I think some scientists didn't tell the whole truth when they measured the global warming information. The earth goes in cycles with warming and cooling and if one is to believe all the scentific information at present the earth is actually in a cooling trend. However, I think air quality is a great concern, and when the trees are destroyed, the air we breate will eventually become more unhealthy.
