The Relationship between Amazon Rainforest Deforestation and Economic Development

Abstract

The Amazon rainforest is the largest and most species-rich tropical rainforest on Earth. It not only absorbs carbon dioxide, but also produces oxygen. It produces 10% of the oxygen supply every year. When people destroy rainforest, it not only affects the economy, but also the species. For example, some animals used to live on the edge of the forest, but now the trees on the edge have been cut down and can only live deeper, but there are many ferocious animals living in it, which may kill them or even cause species extinction, so the biological system is affected by Seriously disrupted, the cycle of the animal food chain could become disjointed. Therefore, how to protect the economy from damage while protecting the rainforest has become a hot topic. Since the damage from the destruction of the rainforest is most evident in Brazil, it deserves more attention. This article will provide an in-depth understanding of the relationship between rainforest and the economy from a number of different perspectives, as well as social, personal and governmental recommendations for improved rainforest maintenance.
