i want to save the forest n all bout weve depleted our forest how can we expect them to do any different were forcing other countries into the same recssion like situations we are in but as eating meat ur insane ownz its best sorce or protein its ez to get animals that we do eat and kill are part of the food chain dam peta ppl get over it there food animals eat animals ppl are scientificly speaking animals so we therefore eat animals, being omnivores is what made our speicies such a sucess

@roelke77 ok put urself in there shoes how much of the US or any other modern country is tree rich we clear cut in the US for out needs yet we do not want other countries to grow and prosper its there trees and yes i kno the amount of our co2 swapped for oxygen there is vital but its there country we expanded and grew to what we are today its sad that since we f'd up our land we are scared what would happen if they did the same and pressure there government to our will its messed up

dont bother... if this road will be ready every tree in 100 miles of the road will be chopped, i wouldnt even try to save the rainforest there, brazil is just a very corrupt country and everything and everyone is for sale, you can even clearcut areas in the preserved areas there!, just depends on who you know

It's not about what you know, it's about what you can do.
