Forest & their Biological Wealth(defforestation)

Hello to all ambassador.I visited a romote village in the NorthWest region of Cameroon and discovered defforestation of forest and vegetation throug the use of bushfire was still a major farming technique.A native told me "the entire forest is usually cleared with fire throug shifting cultivation,bush fallow,or forest fallow ".I wanted to know why the forest clearence is an uncontrollable issue ?And i realised there is high rates of forest conversion for traditional agriculture(slash and burn),pasture for cattles,over harvesting of fuel wood and wasteful and unsustainable commercial logging.The problem of forest depletion in most of this villages is no longer a debate.Indications concerning forest degradation is the loss of biomass occuring at a significant high rate.At the end of my observation i conclude there is a need for conservation,for forest and their biological wealth are natural assets that protect the soil from erosion and represent home to millions of species,plant life and help moderate climate
