illegal logging in Indonesia |
One of the most serious topics that we have talked about is deforestation. That is big word that has a BIG meaning. Do you remember what it means?
Deforestation is the cutting and clearing away of trees from forests. We learned that there are a number of reasons why humans are choosing to continue to tear down our world's rain forests. Rain forests have many valuable resources and people want what they have. Do you think that this is fair? What happens when people cut down trees in the rainforest? What happens to everything that lives there?
In your scrapbook, write what you think about deforestation and how humans are impacting the rainforest.
