Trees

 We had a class debate over should trees get cut down! Here is the writing tat I did on it. Hope you enjoy and agree with me.

We have been asked the question: Should trees be cut down? I did not hesitate to fight for not cutting down trees because of these reasons. I am strongly against cutting down trees

First of all it has been proven that trees produce oxygen, and  every year 3.5 billion to 7 billion are being cut down. Yes trees produce some items that we use but would you rather have toilet paper or oxygen, I mean really? Healthy mature trees produce 260 pounds of oxygen a year, thats only enough to supply a four person family and yes oxygen weighs something it actually weighs 0.001429 of a gram per cubic meter, I bet you people who want to cut trees and don’t care about the environment didn’t know that, BECAUSE YOU DON’T CARE ABOUT THE ENVIRONMENT.

Second off Is the animals WHERE ARE THEY GOING TO LIVE???? 137 species of animals are becoming extinct every day adding up to 50 000 species are dying a year because of deforestation . Another terrifying animal slaughter fact is that 8 out of 10 land animals depend on trees the same trees we are cutting down at horrifying speed we are going to wipe out so many more species unless we stop. Wait wait wait I already know that your going to say well they can just move away especially the birds they can just fly of. My first problem with that is that not all of the animals can get away some birds might hit branches as the tree falls and get crushed and also what about baby animals like eggs chicks and anything that cant get away in time! My other problem with that is well imagine the tables are turned, your just in your your house making some breakfast they a sparrow driving a bulldozer comes and knocks your house down according to you guys it no big deal because “ oh they can just move away” right no big deal! Of course it actually is a big deal because they have to start all over again for finding shelter and finding something to eat and drink.

For my last argument It causes global warming, you wood chopping maniacs may of heard it and I also hear that some people don’t believe in global warming. To that I say WHHHAAAATTTTTT first of how and why don’t you believe in it, it has been proven that it exists. Even for you people who do believe it exist you obviously don’t care that our planet is going to become a scorching desert unless we do something about it because you are creating it every time you cut down a tree it almost seems like you want our earth to become scorching hot. If you people don’t stop then you are digging your own grave.

In conclusion you tree slicing sickos chopping down our source of oxygen by the truck load. Destroying the animals all around us with extreme speed and causing global warming. Hope your happy you are ruining our planet.
