Deforestation will mean that the water cycle will not continue as effectively and there will be little fresh water stores.
 
**60% of the Amazon rainforest is in Brazil. The cattle section of the Brazilian amazon rainforest has been responsible for 80% of deforestation in the region and 14% of international deforestation. ]]> 2017-03-20 13:57:19 UTC https://padlet.com/cgilbert12/g8s8s6mevf5i/wish/161176626 kkeary10730 https://padlet.com/cgilbert12/g8s8s6mevf5i/wish/161176769 Without the rainforest the water cycle will be highly effected as the trees place water back into the atmosphere.
