Is globalisation leading to deforestation

Yes, globalization is contributing to deforestation as it increases demand for resources such as timber, palm oil, and agricultural products. This heightened demand often leads to large-scale land clearing and unsustainable practices in countries rich in forests. Additionally, the expansion of global trade networks facilitates the exploitation of Natural Resources, often prioritizing economic growth over environmental protection. Consequently, the interconnectedness of economies can result in significant ecological degradation.
