The greatest source of damage and destruction to forest is
Answer: D
The greatest source of damage and destruction to forests is man.
Human activities cause the largest losses: clearing forest for agriculture, settlements, mining, roads and dams; illicit felling; excessive lopping and grazing of livestock; encroachment; and most forest fires in India, which are started deliberately or carelessly by people.
Adverse climate (drought, frost, storms), wild animals, and insect pests and diseases do cause damage, but their effect is smaller and more local, and is often made worse by human disturbance.
