People
selling their rainforest
Define:
Rainforest people sell their rainforests for money. When people buy the land
they might want to build farms or buildings and that means cutting down
trees.
Effect:
Selling land might mean that the rainforest people will have eventually have no
land or food and have to find somewhere else to live.
Solutions:
Get more eco tourism. Eco tourism can be bad but it can also be good! Eco tourism is when people (like us) go into the rainforest and live with the rainforest people for about a week (to find out more click on the green button that says eco tourism). If the rainforest people are earning a bit of money from that then the people will not want to sell their rainforest.
