According to a United Nations report, agriculture is the major cause of deforestation. Farming is responsible for 48% of deforestation; commercial agriculture is responsible for 32% of deforestation; logging is responsible for 14% of deforestation and fuel wood removals make up 5% of deforestation. This report shows that agriculture is responsible for 80% of deforestation.
Since human beings also need natural resources for their use but it is our responsibility to protect the earth. This can be done by proper planning for afforestation so that removed trees can be replaced with new trees. Thus, the correct answer is option C.
