So, Brazil is clearing out the Amazon to make way for farm land. Is the deforestation in the Amazon really any of our business?

Brazil is a sovereign country. The U.N. needs to stop trying to enact international law. Oh, and What about the decades of deforestation in Papua New Guinea by Europeans, mainly Great Britain lumber companies?

Wether it’s grass or trees . Plants filter the bad stuff.. isn’t 7 billion ppl enough for a limit? More ppl. Need more food. You can’t eat a rain forest

@brainrapist However, the term "oxygen production" is quite misleading, as the decomposition of organic plant and animal matter in rainforests actually consumes about the same amount of oxygen as the forests produce.

@TheOneyouwerewarnedabout But liberals are okay with cutting down trees to build wind farms and solar farms that produce very little energy
