How come so many tree's are being cut donw? I'm doing a research paper on tree loss in North America. Don't people think about the thing's like animal loss? Also one day we will run out of tree's if we either don't stop cutting them down or adding new ones!! I think we should make it illegal to cut down trees. Because tree's are living thing's just like you and I. They never did anything to us to get cut down. I serously strongly suggest we stop cutting down our forest tree's and also tree's around the world. It is RIDICULOUS.My name is karly and im in sixth grade.
