Essay

Imagine you’re a tree and you’re giving oxygen to people so they can breathe but one day someone comes over to you and just cuts you down. How would you feel? Probably not so good. Why do we cut down trees? What is the purpose? Well, I think it is purposeless and you might think I’m wrong but trees give us life– we shouldn’t be cutting them down and killing innocent animals at the same time. We MUST treat trees better!

One reason why we shouldn’t cut down trees is because it reduces oxygen in the world and harms the environment. When we cut down trees, we are losing oxygen and causing climate change. Trees take in carbon dioxide which is a gas, and trees give oxygen into the air so we can breathe. When we cut down all the trees we are taking away oxygen that we need and releasing carbon dioxide from the trees into the air, which ruins our atmosphere.

Another reason that we shouldn’t cut down trees is because when we do, animals lose their homes. When this happens, animals can also sometimes die. They won’t have shelter and we could be taking away what they eat. If we don’t cut down the trees we won’t kill as many animals. If we continue to do this, we could affect all the food chains around the world! That would be bad. Also, how would you feel if someone destroyed your home? Probably not so good. It is very disrespectful to the animals because they are living things and what did they ever do to you?

Lastly, we shouldn’t cut down trees because they provide beauty in our world. Nature is such a pretty thing and we won’t want to take that away from people around the world. Being in nature can help reduce stress levels in humans. You might be wondering, “can’t people find another way to reduce stress?” This might be true but nature is proven to be the best!

I hope you have learned your lesson to never cut down trees because it can hurt the environment, kill innocent animals and destroys the beauty in the world. We need to save more trees now!

reflection

Persuasive Reflection I loved writing about why you should not cut down trees because it was fun writing about what I am passionate about. I also loved recording about this topic because it was not easy. It was difficult to write about, and where I should put it. It was also difficult to think of what to write next and punctuation was hard too.
