Before humans started destroying the rainforests, they covered 15% of the Earth's land area, today, they cover only 6%.
We are cutting down rainforests for:

wood for both timber and making fires;

agriculture for both small and large farms;

land for poor farmers who don’t have anywhere else to live;

grazing land for cattle;

pulp for making paper;

road construction; and

extraction of minerals and energy.
