What is the environmental impact of deforestation?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
Deforestation, which is the elimination or significant reduction of forests and jungles, has serious environmental impacts. This includes the loss of biodiversity, as natural habitats are destroyed and many species face extinction due to the abrupt change in their environment. Furthermore, deforestation contributes to climate change, since trees absorb carbon dioxide (CO2) and their removal releases this gas into the atmosphere. It can also lead to soil erosion, water degradation and loss of essential ecosystem services.<end_of_turn><eos>
