The conversion of forests into agricultural plantations. The increase in global demand for commodities, such as palm oil and soybeans, are pushing industrial-scale producers to clear forests at a very fast pace.
Livestock Ranching:
Forest clearing for livestock ranching is another contributor of deforestation.  A strong global demand for beef, supported by governments such as in Brazil, is expanding this kind of deforestation.
Logging:
Logging, including illegal logging, is a driver of deforestation. In Indonesia, illegal logging operations provide short-term income for people living on less than $1 a day. However, it destroys the livelihoods of those who depend on the forest. ]]> 2017-04-27 12:29:53 UTC https://padlet.com/brennababy12311/ph3h2blge6ta/wish/168608404 brennababy12311 https://padlet.com/brennababy12311/ph3h2blge6ta/wish/168613720 Infrastructure Expansion:
Road construction can lead to deforestation by providing an entryway to previously remote land.
Over Population:
Our planet once housed an estimated maximum of 15 million people in Prehistory.The planet’s forests are being devastated at an even rate with population growth.]]> 2017-04-27 12:53:27 UTC https://padlet.com/brennababy12311/ph3h2blge6ta/wish/168613720 brennababy12311 https://padlet.com/brennababy12311/ph3h2blge6ta/wish/168614530 Loss of resources. If we keep cutting down trees without replanting them then we wont have enough resources and we'll run out of natural resources. Once we run out then we will have to fend for ourselves and our world isn't really used to working for things for real.]]> 2017-04-27 12:56:04 UTC https://padlet.com/brennababy12311/ph3h2blge6ta/wish/168614530 brennababy12311 https://padlet.com/brennababy12311/ph3h2blge6ta/wish/168616465 You can help stop deforestation by planting more trees, starting groups to protest, and make a project that for every tree someone cuts down they plant two or more in its place. ]]> 2017-04-27 13:02:08 UTC https://padlet.com/brennababy12311/ph3h2blge6ta/wish/168616465 brennababy12311 https://padlet.com/brennababy12311/ph3h2blge6ta/wish/168617349 http://www.worldwildlife.org/threats/deforestation
