Such a hard thing to watch. I hate to see things like this and know that they are going on. Something that happens when you destroy the rain forest that isn't covered in here is that it also is affecting coral reefs. My son did a study on it last year and it was devastating. They clear the forest and all the setiment washes down into the river....then it is taken out into the ocean. This covers the coral reefs not allowing sun to get to it and it kills the coral reefs and all the life within. Just so sad!!!

While I don't agree with a lot of the climate debate and do think its a natural cycle of the earth. I do believe that destroying these places will hurt us and all of the wildlife that lives there. Just sad that as a world we are not recognizing what effect this has on everything.
