Answer to Question 1

Deforestation leads to an increase in albedo, increased runoff, and decreased evapo-transpiration, which, in turn, can reduce rainfall and increase temperatures..

Answer to Question 2

Instrumental value is the value placed on the benefits resulting from having a certain species in existence. Intrinsic value is the value which we place on the existence of an organism outside of the benefits we gain from having that organism in existence.

This condition is progressive and worsens with time. More than 100 million people in the United States are nearsighted, but only 20% of those are born with the condition.
