13.aforestation: need of time in Nepal

Over population and deforestation both have become much effective causes behind  environmental decline. For the sake of farming and settlement, people move into forest. Besides forest have also become an easy source of fuels. After all people think of the immediate benefit, and therefore suffer themselves. Soil erosion and landslide become quite common because of the deforestation. When high hills are treeless, there is much chance of landslide.
    It is, therefore, true that aforestation is need of time. Neighbouring people should be made conscious about the results of deforestation.Provisions should be made for the replacement of fuels. Community based programmes should be organized and run to encourage people for aforestation. It can preserve the soil. It is also important for seasonal rains. It can help in preservation of wild animals, herbals, and many other things. Forest is the source of wealth. Therefore, aforestation is necessary not deforestation.
