Deforestation has been destroying the ecosystem - or the bigger sphere in which you and I live - for a long time now. Sadly it still is. What happens on the ground affects the sky and what happens in the sky affects what we experience on the ground. This is like 2nd-3rd grade science? Maybe it's more like 5th but I digress. We worry and wonder and look to scientists for "proof" of these things (which are no longer phenomenon - don't believe that) and then we somewhat forget that we knew this basic information all along. How we carry out knowledge, or things we learned but may believe we lost, now this is an almost separate story.
Start with the paper you consume. And I mean all of it. Newspapers or paper at work we use to print. Paper we wipe our backsides with. Greeting cards we buy. It doesn't really stop, hopefully you understand. Read those labels. If they don't read something like "100% post-consumer content" then don't buy them. The technology has long been there but the business decisions don't understandably link up. But we control the business decisions because some people are seated or standing in an office somewhere watching the dollars trickle in and making choices based upon that data. So get it together is what I am saying. If you're buying pampers or scotty (I know it's cheaper but try to use less) or any paper products that are made of fresh trees, you are mainly contributing to the carbon cycle. Those trees produce oxygen and when they gone - so is that oxygen yield and we know that something else replaces it. I think it was called photosynthesis. Be a promoter of your 4th grade or middle school teacher who preached such information if you'd prefer to not consume for yourself.
Participate, be proper, get active in some damn way as this whole thing is just a cycle. And "replacing trees" or blahblahblah is not going to be enough as trees take a long time to grow just as you and I. Time is money yo.
