Who benefits from destruction of the Amazon Rain forest?

Answer 1

The only benefits these awful people get from cutting down the rain forest, is wood to trade. Sad isn't it. All this beautiful habitat destroyed by greedy men. ---- The ones who benefit, in the short term, are the farmers who are detsroying the habitat for more land, so they can increase their crop size. This is true, for example, of the cacao tree farmers who cut down the rainforest to increase the size of the cacao plantations - not realising, however, that the cacao trees need the rainforest for canopy cover.

Answer 2

Companies involved in logging, agriculture, and mining can benefit from the destruction of the Amazon Rainforest by gaining access to valuable resources and land for development. However, these short-term gains often come at the expense of long-term environmental and social consequences.
