Also, we need trees for our oxygen and (3)....CONTRIBUTE.... to conservationnists, if we continue to cut them down, we wll certainly destroy our planet.

On the other hand, people who (4)....HAVE.. a living out of timber think they have a right to cut down trees. I think this is fine provided that they (5)...PLANT.....new trees to replace the one they cut down. Unfortunately,a lot of illegal logging also takes place and these (6).ARE......not replaced. As far as i am concerned,the best approach would be to manage our forests more carefully so that we only cut down trees when its helps other trees survive and remain healthy, or aspart of a replanting program.
