Possitive impacts humans have on the Daintree Rainforest?

Human Impacts on the DaintreeRainforestONCE RUINED, THERE IS NOT REALLY ANYWAY TO REBUILD A RAINFOREST.The Daintree Rainforest is one of the most pristine places on earth, and still there are many bad impacts to the rainforest. Most of these impacts are by humans.One of these human impacts is that many people want to destroy the rainforest for farms since the soil is very nutritious. But even if it was destroyed, the soil would only be good for a year or two because the nutrients in the soil are there from the rainforest plants. This is why it is so hard to rebuild a rainforest because many of the plants normally in a rainforest will no longer be able to root in the place where the rainforest formerly was. If there are no plants, there will be no animals either.Other Human threats include: Mining, which destroys the rainforest to get minerals from under it; Logging, obviously cutting down trees will greatly damage a rainforest; Tourism, there are hundreds of thousands of people who visit the rainforest each year, which means cars and busses in the rainforest disturbing animals and destroying habitats; and also Development, which covers everything from subdivision of land to building roads and fences which disturb and uproot rainforest habitats.

What are the 3 threats to rainforest?

Threats to rainforest ecosystemsAs we have seen previously, rainforests are subjected to a range of natural disturbances, mainly due to cyclones and storm damage, but also drought, fire and volcanic eruptions are other natural processes that effect rainforest ecology. Human activities are increasingly having a major impact on tropical rainforest via deforestation and degradation (Figure 7, Figure 8). There are about 109 ha of tropical forests in the world and about 1% per annum is converted and degraded each year to other land uses, namely;slash-and-burn farminglogging operationscommercial farmingcattle grazingfirewood collectionmininginfrastructure development, especially roads
