How does the loss of the amazon rainforest affect the local tribes?

Answer 1

Well, a positive thing for the government, is that lumber companies get money by selling their wood, and the people that work there get the salary they need, and the government gets the money from the lumber mills who get money from killing the Earth. Another thing is that destroying the rain forest clears land for farming or ranching.

These people just cut down the trees and toss the land when they're done with it, then cut-and-burn more trees.

Extra Info:

The people living there are short-sighted; they don't seem to see too far into the future. All of the Amazon will be destroyed in 40-80 years is what I've researched somewhere in the many sites I've visited for my Amazon project. The world will suffer without the "Lungs of the Planet," as the Amazon is sometimes called, because it supplies 20% of the Earth's oxygen.

Also, the Amazon rainforest used to cover 14% of the Earth's surface. Because of South America's careless deforestation, it now covers less than half the surface it used to, down to 6% of the Earth's surface.

I read somewhere that a fire raged out of control and destroyed... a lot of land, I can't remember the exact number. I thought about it, and if some disaster like that happens again, it could destroy the Amazon much faster and we will all die of over-population, not enough oxygen, or other disasters caused by too many people and not enough trees or medicines.

Please talk to both of the Olivia's about this question. The person that wrote this question copied it from the paper, WORD BY WORD, so the person who wrote this question is most likely from Grisham. Tell me who you are, I want to know who. Unless, of course, you are not on Team 2, and you don't know me from last year.

Anyways, I've already written a lot. I hope you find my answer satisfactory, whoever you are.
