Why is Brazil removing their rainforests?
Many aspects should be take into consideration. The Country is developing itself and making same mistakes that other countries did in the past or still doing today, like USA, Russia or China, big aggressors of their own environment and our planet. Brazilian Government is incompetent to enforce its own policy's and fund resources to protect the forest. In the other hand, the industrialized countries in Europe as well as Japan and USA pay high price for noble timbers cut off from the forest, legally or not. Mining is also another destructive force in the rain forest, tons of gold are smuggled to Dubai and worldwide, multinational corporations are there after other minerals to produce aluminum. Poor neglected farmers need clear the land to grow crops and raise cattle. Wild life, fauna and flora has been systematically exploited because its value in scientific researches by developed countries around the world. Every one of us, aware or not, is somehow benefiting from the rain forest destruction, there is no exception here, we live in a globalized world. If you add greed, poverty, incompetence, corruption and hypocrisy in global scale you got your answer. (Tuna Stra)

Well Brazil is a very multicultural country. Just like in the United States's first settlers were the Native Americans, they were also the first settlers in Brazil. Just like the English colonized United States, the Portuguese Colonized the United States. Just like African slaves were brought to America, African slaves were also brought to Brazil.

What has happened in Brazil recently- floods?
Every year the same thing at the time of the summer rains. The metropolitan areas of large cities face flooding that depriving shelter thousands of people, and injure and even kill many others. Usually the biggest losers are poor people from poor neighborhoods who have no safe and ideal for housing, being at the mercy of the precarious urban city.
The floods, today, are the result of a long process of modification and destabilization by human forces of nature that accompanies the rapid and unplanned growth of most cities.
Major causes of floods:
High rainfall in the region
Deforestation
Siltation of river beds
Rectification of rivers. In nature, the rivers with a considerable volume of water are curvilinear, or walk like a snake. This path decreases significantly the speed of the water. Rectify it means increasing your speed, which aggravates the situation on bottlenecks (conversion of water)
High degree of soil sealing for asphalt surfaces and concrete
Growth and disorderly occupation of migrants
High degree of poverty on the outskirts of town, making it impossible for people to have resources to dispose of garbage, for example
Lack of awareness and environmental education administrators and the general population
Omission of the government in urban management and lack of proper sanitation.
The floods, most often occur as a result of human action.
On April 22nd, 1500 the Portugese captain Pedro Álvares Cabral voyaged from Portugal to claim Brazil, landing at Porto Seguro. (He sailed back via Africa, and on to India on the same voyage). The first sight of land for him was a mountain, which he named "Monte Pascoal" or "Paschal Mountain", because it was Easter on that specific day. He called the natives "Indians" (as the Spanish had) because he thought he had reached India.
However, please note that Brazil was inhabited by people when he arrived. A contemporary account of a voyage made up the Amazon river describes the area being densely populated, with farms along the river banks and a great number of large villages. By 150 years later, voyagers only described the jungles we see today. It is likely that the first European visitors brought diseases to the Amazon which wiped out many of the native populations. The point is that Pedro Cabral did not actually "discover" Brazil except that it was the first time Europeans knew of the land. There were people there before him.
