If we take the effort to destroy it, why don't we take the effort to replant it and let nature grow it back?

The amazon is known for their trees, what would be so absoluytely necessary for us to start deforestation in the rainforest?

I agree with Russle. popping a seed in the floor isn't that hard at all. I am more concerned about the wildlife though. A large amount of animals are losing space to call a home and extinction could be a possibility, unfortunately.

The amazon forests provide oxygen to the earth and also give a home to hundreds of animals. I don't understand why they feel the need to destroy the rain forests for houses and material when there's plenty of space else where.

its very unfortunate how we ruin the majesticness of nature for urbanization but what can we do if we exponentially grow like how we are now

I think some trees do need to be cut down that is just apart of our lives but then again when we gradually start cutting down more and more it just screws up our ecosystem so much more. so I don't see why we don't have people working on new ways to make paper rather than using trees, but we would rather use thoose scientists to mak new make up or making more pointless items.

quite the bummer thinking of all the wildlife left without anywhere to live.

And then we wonder why the world and all of its wildlife is so jacked up. -.-

Ugh this makes me so sad because people who involve themselves in deforestation do it for profit and are unaware of the future consequences that deforestation has on the environment.

It is so sad. We barely have nature anymore in the world. Yes its okay to cut some down, but not all. Think of all the homes of the wildlife they are killing off.
