Which of the following reports regarding the different viewpoints on deforestation is coherent     and comprehensive?

• Deforestation is a phenomenon that is rampantly happening today. It offers two sides. It can be both advantageous and disadvantageous. It is advantageous because through it, the loggers are having a source of income which they can use in sustaining their families’ needs. With the loggers’ efforts, forests are converted into agricultural and industrial lands, which can benefit the people. On the other hand, it is disadvantageous because it can destroy our planet. It can limit life because the source of oxygen is lessened.

• Deforestation is good. Through it, the loggers can gain money and buy everything they want. The people can build small and big houses because of deforestation. With the help of the loggers, the people can get different foods, materials, and medicines from the forests. They can catch the animals in the forests and take them as pets after the loggers have cut down the trees. By looking at it, deforestation offers fun to the people and makes their living easier than before.

• There's nothing wrong with deforestation! After all, it provides for plenty of jobs, and plus, who's to care if we chop down a few trees? We're only trimming the rainforest! And someone has to provide for my family! Those rich people are saying, 'Stop chopping down the trees, it's bad for the environment!' And what do they do? Nothing!

• Oh, there are plenty of bad things to do with logging! Everything has to do with logging! They're chopping down the trees that make up my home, my village's territory is being minimized, and thanks to the big loud machines, all our food has run away! We only have a few veggies for food now, and I don't know what we'll do when we have to leave this forest. Those loggers are the most hard-hearted people I've ever seen!
