Global climate change is placing increasing pressure on trees and forests. Development and logging also pose a threat alongside many other causes. Some natural causes of deforestation are drought, climate change and wildfires, while artificial causes can be industrial agriculture, logging, mining and urbanisation.
Worldwide initiatives to save the environment through tree planting are emerging in response to these issues and to aid the removal of carbon dioxide from the atmosphere.
