Today people are dying from scorpions in Brazil. Deforestation is destroying the scorpions food sources so they are venturing out looking and they find humans.
More people are eating soybeans and meat,so Brazil is destroying their forests to grow protein. The problem is not cities,urbanization or industrialization it is TOOOO MANY MOUTHS TO FEED. The earth can not support the population future with healthy foods so the agricultural businesses are producing poor quality, dangerously new foods such as GMO and other poisonous foods such as glucose for our diets. Our stomachs can not digest these poisons and they are destroying our bodies bacteria. It’s a brave new world or as our business friends would say it is the new normal! Cities can work if properly located and planned
Answer:
Forest land is being sacrificed for massive development projects that have become a necessary part of urbanisation and industrialisation. There are many such development projects. Forests are also being used as a source of raw material for paper, pulp and rayon mills, Timber from forests is used to make furniture, railway sleepers and a number of our other daily requirements. A significant percentage of our population uses fire wood, procured from forests, ás cooking fuel. In addition to fuel, forests are also a source of fodder, building materials, medicines and other minor forest products, again, for a significant percentage of human population.
