Answer 2

A large clearing of the plantations and trees from an area is called deforestation. Due to deforestation soil erosion, change in the water cycle, flood etc. occurs.

The correct answer is:

Option D. Replant and protect trees in areas that have been previously cleared.

This can be explained as:

• Re-plantation of the trees and vegetation in the cleared area will help in mitigating deforestation.

• Sustainable harvesting techniques do not have an effect on deforestation.

• Intensive agriculture techniques will not help in restoring the deforested lands.

Therefore, re-plantation is the method to mitigate deforestation.
