territory changes.

Impact of deforestation on climate
change
In the process of photosynthesis, the forest
processes part of the carbon dioxide into
oxygen, mitigating its impact on the climate.
Uncontrolled cutting of trees leads to an
increase in global temperatures, the
consequences of which we are already
feeling. One of them is the melting of the
Arctic ice. It leads to weather anomalies and
natural disasters around the world.

Where does the Russian forest go?
According to some reports, China is the main buyer of Russian
unprocessed forest materials: it accounted for more than half of
exports and over 22% of all forests cut down in 2018. The rest,
apparently, went to domestic consumption and export to other
countries (there are no detailed statistics on the distribution of
deforested forests).
