A. To protect the habitats of plant and animal species found in forests

Explanation:

The deforestation is something that has started to occur more and more often as the human societies have been developing. There a re several reasons as to why the humans have been using this. One major reason is to clear up space for farming, as the demand for food has constantly been on the rise. Another reason has been to open up the space for cattle grazing, as the demand for meat has also been on the rise, and the cattle needs grasslands to feed, not forests. The rise of the urban areas and the industry has also resulted in deforestation as they needed clear space for building and functioning. The lumber industry too contributes a lot of deforestation as it effectively cuts down the trees, some of which are used as firewood, some for furniture, paper,  and many other things. All of this mass deforestation has resulted in endangering lot of species across the globe, while many others have even gone extinct as their environment has been totally destroyed. This process is still continuing, and if its not stopped, then it will have catastrophic consequences.
