Illegal mining, logging, and farming are destroying the
rainforest. The people of the Amazon have slowly been taken
away from the rainforest during the last few years, or given certain boundaries. Large areas of land are being plowed
for the farming of soybeans and pastures for cows. In 2002 about 10000 feet of rainforest was cut down alone. Large amounts of
valuable wood called mahogany are illegally being cut down to sell in
various countries. The government plans to stop the destroying of the
rainforest, and the land the government has gotten will hopefully
someday be added onto. Some of the governors are working more on the project than others. Illegal mining, logging, and farming are destroying the
