Not very much is good about cutting down the Amazon rainforest. We cut down trees that have been growing for hundreds of years.
This small advantage hardly counts compared to the damage caused.
- Trees absorb carbon dioxide, a powerful greenhouse gas. Cutting down the trees increases global warming.
- The Amazon rainforest is home to indigenous tribes, as well as thousands of birds and other creatures. This is their habitat, their home.
- Cutting down the rainforests is often done to provide extra grazing for cattle. Our increasing demand for red meat means that more and more cattle are put into production. Cattle and sheep belch out methane, which is a greenhouse gas twenty times more dangerous than carbon dioxide.

Is the amazon rainforest a tropical or temperate rainforest?
sorry i know the answer was not a good answer and you like to know this answerthat was a wrong answer i will speak to the person who published it so i will just find the answerhere is the answer its pretty long it took long to writeThere are two types of Rainforest tropical and temperate. Tropical are found close to the equator. Temperate are found along coasts in the temperate zone.Tropical rainforests are located close to the equator, an area known as the tropic zone. Most are in the area between the Tropic of Cancer. and the Tropic of Capricorn.Temperatures near the equator are higher. These higher temperatures cause accelerated evaporation of water, which results in frequent rain in forested areas in the tropics.Tropical rainforests are found in South and Central America, Africa, Australia, and Asia. Tropical rainforests cover only about 6% of the Earth's surface.The largest tropical rain forest are in the Amazon River Basin, the Congo River Basin, and throughout much of southeast Asia. There are many smaller ones located throughout the tropics including Central America, Madagascar, Australia and India.Temperate rainforests are found in the area of the earth known as the temperate zones. Areas that include temperate rainforests are the pacific coast of the United States and Canada, New Zealand, Tasmania, Chile, Ireland, Scotland and Norway. There are fewer temperate forests.. Also they cover a lot less area.

What are the bad effects in changes in matter?
Changes of matter in the environment can be beneficial or harmful. For example, changes in the soil when it is built up through adding organic matter has a good effect on the soil and growing plants. On the other hand, growing crops year after year without doing anything to restore the soil, depletes it of nutrients, which in turn means that the foods grown in those soils have fewer nutrients. Another example is water. Clean water is good for fish, animals and humans. Polluted water can bring diseases to them all. Cutting down forests is another example. Responsibly cutting down selected trees can actually be beneficial to the forest and wildlife. On the other hand, clear-cutting all the trees is deadly to wildlife and causes soil erosion.
