Answer:

The tropical rainforests face the threat of deforestation. Deforestation is happening due to the following reasons:

Farming - large areas are cleared for pastoral farming.  Arable farming is also responsible for the loss of tropical rainforest as many farmers are clearing land to grow cash crops, such as soya beans.

Logging - tropical rainforests are cut down so that valuable trees like mahogany can be accessed and sold for timber to make furniture. Other trees are cut down for making paper products.

Roads - the construction of access roads for farmers, loggers and miners results in large parts of the tropical rainforest being destroyed.

Population - population growth has resulted in the loss of tropical rainforest as land is cleared to build houses and infrastructure.
