4<\/sup>. When a large area of trees is cut down, it is called clear-cut logging. In other words, this creates a less productive forest and a surplus of waste. As a result, the waste can block natural drainage systems.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\nFurthermore, poor forest practice can cease forest renewal. This harms the global carbon balance. As an example, the province of Ontario displays a lack of forestry management. This is because it is not essential to follow the guidance. Hence, Ontario’s deforestation rate is 7 times more than the country’s average rate5<\/sup>.\u00a0However, the use of biotechnology can boost the amount of waste that is used6<\/sup>. Therefore, this can have a positive effect on the climate.<\/p>\r\nGlobal companies and Canadian deforestation<\/h2>\r\n Global companies rely on the boreal to make their products. An example of this is Procter & Gamble. This is because the northern bleached softwood kraft pulp found in the boreal is great for making virgin pulp tissue7<\/sup>. Above all else, clear-cut logging is used. NGO’s, such as \u2018Stand. earth\u2019 expect these companies to start to source greener alternatives. For instance, using recycled tissue.<\/p>\r\nWhat is the Canadian government doing to reduce the global effect of Canadian deforestation?<\/h2>\r\n The Canadian government has given CAD $175 million to fund conservation8<\/sup>. This will govern forested areas. In order to create good forestry practices, locals can work with the government to promote rights for the locals. Studies show that this can improve the health of the forest. In order to do this, there must be control of the forests for years to come.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\nNatural Resources Canada, (2020).
