Land can be created by deforestation or demolish old buildings. Large areas of forests are cleared by commercial logging companies as population increases in Singapore over the years. The advantage of land clearance will create empty land for housing and economic developments.
However, clearing the forests rapidly causes damaged to the land. The disadvantages are:
* loss of biodiversity as many plants and animals lose their homes and become extinct. The food chain may be destroyed.
* the destruction of forest-based-societies
* climatic disruption
