Education is the key to prevention.
BACKGROUND
Everyone has a part to play in saving the forests, which is why , through this project of mine, i hope to raise awareness that our selfish needs to change for the better. Most of us have been taking advantage of our natural resources for far too long. Such resources would be our trees, we have been horrible enough to cut them down and casually wasting paper, thinking they are easily avaliable to attain at all time,
This is where we are wrong, as nearly as
4 BILLION TREES
are being cut down each year for paper alone.

WHERE IT BEGINS,
Designed a 100cm x 50cm cloth mural on the transition of paper ; The past , present and the future.
HISTORY
“The invention of paper was a great contribution to the
Chinese civilization and to the civilization of the world.”
Chinese civilization and to the civilization of the world.”
PRESENT
The demand of paper consumption escalates as human population grows.The paper productions that are not being able to cope with the market pressure resulted in them logging our natural forests instead
of tree plantations.
"In short, we are the cause of Deforestation."
Most of the deforestation also mainly occurs in third world countries and
developing countries. The locals are being put under a lot of pressure to make
a living to support their families, which results in them getting jobs as loggers.
The bars of the graph represent the souls of the tree trunks that list the top 6 countries with the highest deforestation rate.

As deforestation continues, much of the wilderness from which we benefit will be lost forever.
With it are the millions of chances in the form of plants and wildlife that could bring us
many economic and medical solutions to pressing problems we currently face.
"But because of deforestation, we are losing 137
species of plants and animals everyday due to our greedy needs."

"But because of deforestation, we are losing 137

By destroying the tropical forests, we risk our own quality of life, gamble with the stability of climate and local weather, threaten the existence of other species, andundermine the valuable services provided by biological diversity.
"By logging our forests, we are actually destroying the lungs of our planet."

Humanity now thinks that in order to survive in this modern society is to become rich.
Their way of thinking has evolved from sufficiency to greed and selfishness,
with the impression that money is the cure for everything.
"We want too many things but in truth, we need to want less."

FUTURE
Past and ongoing logging activity has resulted in the detrimental degradation of the world’s forestand this has dire consequences to the environment and flora and fauna that are part of this delicate ecosystem.
"Hence, the responsibility of saving the forest belongs to everyone and it is up to us to make a difference."
