One of many factors that cause global warming is desertification. Desertification is destroying forest lands or grassland because of urbanization; in other ward it is a movement of sand over the forested lands to become desert-like.
Desertification is happening in many places around the world, like the rainforests in Brazil which face very big eliminated and destroyed by direct or indirect human involved. In numbers, 2.4 acres of rainforests destroyed every second; which means 78 million acres per year. This happens in many places around the world and effect in global climate by make it more worm.
Desertification cause global warming by increasing temperatures, because it lead to lower relative humidity, fewer clouds and as a result, reduced precipitation. If the area of desertification expand, the area of warming will expand as well to make it global warming.
