Thousands of animals die due to the sudden change of environments. In fact, animals can lose their habitats in one day given the technology and machinery we have today

Soil is at risk of erosions from the loss of trees and plants
Human activity such as litter and other harmful chemicals increase as the population rises
Animals and micro organisms naturally take care of the soils, without them there is a trickle affect.

As the demand for homes rises, thousands of trees and life cut down. Trees are the foundation to an ecosystem; the effects are unmeasurable including, flooding, soil erosion, higher CO2 levels etc
