Tropical deforestation has accounted for about fifteen to twenty percent of global warming; which is more than the emissions from automobiles. In the country of Indonesia, more than sixty percent of carbon emissions comes deforestation of forests and peatlands; this alone, makes Indonesia the third worst country to produce greenhouse gas. Many forms of deforestation take place, but an illegal but popular method is the “slash and burn” method. Which burns forests and peatlands. In some cases, fires can continue burn for long periods of time, which emits an extreme amount of greenhouse gas. Peatlands are another area which causes great issue, due to the area holding tremendous amount of Carbon Dioxide that can be released if farmed for Palm
