In recent times climate change has been identified as one of the most complex issues
facing by the human causing several natural catastrophic climatic impacts. The planet's average surface temperature has risen 0.85°C during the period 1880-2012 (IPCC, 2014), a change driven largely by increased carbon dioxide and other human-made emissions into the atmosphere and it is likely to reach 1.5°C between 2030 and 2052 if it continues to increase at the current rate (IPCC, 2018). Scientists have reported many consequences of climate change each year, and many agree that economic,
nvironmental and health consequences are likely to occur if current trends continue. And experts see that the trend is accelerating over the past 50 years. Forest plays a vital role in mitigating the diverse effects of environmental degradation and acting as a carbon sink of the terrestrial ecosystem. Trees and forest have an essential and central role to limit the rise in atmospheric carbon and slow down the climate change through sequestration and storage of atmospheric carbon.
