उत्तर

Forests help to prevent droughts and floods by regulating the water cycle. The roots of trees absorb and store rainwater, allowing it to slowly seep into the soil and recharge groundwater, reducing the risk of drought. During heavy rains, trees slow the flow of water, reduce soil erosion, and manage surface runoff, reducing the risk of flooding and conserving the ecosystem.
