Compare and contrast: Forest loss intensifies climate change by increasing temperatures and cloud level, which leads to decrease of water

In the last two decades, as much as 18 % of Africa’s montane forests were lost due to deforestation, which resulted in a warming and cloud level rise two times higher than that caused by climate change. Research resulted that air temperature has increased by 1,4 centigrades, while cloud level has risen by 230 meters during the last 20 years. Click here to read the story.
