Making most of the oxygen on the plane earth go away heavily and fatally impacting the environment.
 
Good points, Garett!
Watch your sentence structure and grammar.

They are making room for fields and pastures but people are also getting rid of the forests that we need. As said in the article, "Rain forests are crucial to the health of the entire planet." If we cut down to many trees, there will not be enough oxygen and we will eventually run out of lumber. Even though people make money off of these jobs, the jobs they are performing are not helping the environment.  Trees are also used for heating and cooking purposes. When trees are cut down, animals homes are destroyed and these animals have the chance of becoming extinct. These are just a few examples of the connections between deforestation and economic benefits.

Excellent job, Bridget!!!

For example, the heavily destroyed forests in Brazil have made them the "worlds second-largest producer of beef and soy". However, the same deforestation has displaced indigenous people of the Amazon Rain forest, a financial loss for thousands. A few peoples greed has displaced and essentially robbed tons of people. Another cause of deforestation is fire, which is a loss for anyone who lives in and around the forest. People who live in the rain forest are displaced/killed, and the people who are clearing the land have their work done for them. These are just a few examples of how deforestation has affected the financial world.

Great work, Clary!!

An economic benefit is agriculture. When forests are destroyed, there are benefits to some people, and its non-beneficial to some as well. People who cut down trees (deforestation) benefit from this. They get money from growing crops on the new land they just received from cutting down the trees when they sell the crops. But for some, it could destroy their homes (animals), or the people cutting down trees could trespass peoples private land. The people that get profits from deforestation are glad with it, but some are not. This is just one way deforestation and economic benefits connect. 

Excellent job, Isabella!!

When forests are removed for construction there is room to build then, but then when forests are removed, so are animals homes. Another example is cutting down trees for logging. Logging occurs for many reasons such as construction, firewood, and etc. These are all a "positive gain" in our eyes now, but in the long run this could hurt us badly in fact it is already. We release Co2 into the atmosphere, trees absorb this oxygen, and we are all fine. But without trees because eventually we are going to cut trees down to the point where there are not enough trees to absorb the constant releasing of gasses, global warming sets in. It has already to begin to now. There are good and bad consequences to deforestation. 

Good work, Cameron! Make sure to mention the phrase "economic benefits" though.

Great job, Jackson!!

If people cut down too many trees, we will run out of clean air in the world, and there will be no more habitats for animals to live in, but people continue to do it for the money. In a money hungry society, there is nothing we can do about it. Economic benefits can be made by deforestation, but that does not mean it is a good thing.

Awesome job, Will!

There are more problems in deforestation than the benefits of economics. There are some good things about deforestation, it creates jobs, makes things for the rest of the population (paper,chopsticks,pencils,ect.). But the downsides are mass forest population, the ozone layer decreases, less oxygen are being put into the air, ect.

They can give jobs, makes things for the rest of the population. The lac of trees from economic benefits decreases the ozone layer. So they both have positives and negatives outcomes on the environment.

But if you think about it there is also some more benefits, like agriculture. The article says the higher amount of population the more farms and ranches are needed to make a steady food source. another one is that thet there is now a use for the lumber that they are cutting down, a very common cooking and heating source is still fire wood and fire places.

Great job, Robbie!

It gives people jobs by letting them cut wood to sell. This can also affect the environment when people do it illegally for there own benefits. This also affects animals and the environment. They loose there homes and there habitat and they can become endangered and or even extinct.

- Good job! Could you also explain other economic benefits besides jobs.

When you cut trees down for economic benefits its for farms and houses and to have stores and things like that, but when you cut down trees it can mess up the oxygen level and could cause bad things because we don't have fresh air.

Good points. However, you needed to mention how they connect rather than the difference. Whenever you cut down trees it's normally for economic reasons.

When forests are destroyed it makes a large "dent" in the enviroment, like when wildfires take out a whole forest at a time, or when immigrants use the resoures greedily. People who cut down trees (deforestation) benefit from the downfall of the enviroment and other people. The differecne between deforestation and ecinomic benefit is deforestaion hurts and economic benefits help.
