Environmentalists boycott exotic woods from the rainforest primarily due to concerns about deforestation and habitat destruction. The harvesting of these woods often leads to the loss of biodiversity and disrupts ecosystems that are vital for both wildlife and climate regulation. Additionally, unsustainable logging practices can contribute to the displacement of indigenous communities and exacerbate climate change by releasing stored carbon. By boycotting these products, environmentalists aim to promote sustainable forestry practices and raise awareness about the importance of preserving rainforest ecosystems.
