Wars affected the forests in following ways:
(i) Demand of wood increases to meet the needs of war and more deforestation takes place.
(ii) During war, large areas of forests come under fire which led to clearing of forests.
(iii) At the time of war, Governments themselves put the large catches of wood and cutting machines on fire so that these resources must not go in the hands of enemy. It is known as the policy of ‘Scatcherd Earth’. Dutch rulers followed the same policy in Indonesia. They wanted to stop their forest resources to go into the hands of Japan.
