Explanation:

We know deforestation is a real problem in the world today. Apart from damaging the environment, deforestation also brings social problems. In places like the Amazon forest, Argentina, Borneo or Indonesia, the planet’s ecosystems, biodiversity, and the soils are being damaged. And people’s livelihoods often get at stake too. The big picture is probably the contribution of deforestation to climate change, but also the rise of social inequality.

The demand for products such as soy (connected with meat consumption), palm oil, sugarcane or rare Earth minerals has been growing. The main reasons for this demand are humankind’s consumption habits and the continuous growth of the human population. At the same time, these commodities have a big number of uses in several products, making them interesting to lots of different industries. All this demand has been creating incentives to turn forests into farmland, pasture land or mining spots.
