Indigenous people of the Amazon fostered palm forests‚ groves of Brazil nuts and fruit trees‚ and vine forests near ancient Amazonian settlements. Environmentalists could argue that rainforests can be “saved” by through the restriction of economic growth‚ but it is vital to realize that the local communities will not approve parks and reserves‚ as it is in their interest to conserve the rainforest. The shifted cultivator who forces small farmers into the forest to begin new farmlands causes about 60% of

But there are some cases where you cannot determine the age of trees‚ like the trees in a tropical rain forest. The cambium grows all year round. Yet these trees do not have rings. Consequently without the cambium rings‚ it is difficult to tell the age of these species trees. Since trees have an s As told in the Holy Bible‚ “And the Lord God made all

Generally‚ the main agents in the process of degradation belongs to the private sector. For example landowners are motivated by making commercial profits by forests.
