Deforestation of the Amazon Rainforest

in deforestation •  8 years ago 

Can someone please explain to me why we have the destruction of the Amazon Rainforest from illegal logging and clearing areas for cattle grazing. With all the carbon tax money being syphoned off from the tax payer in the west you would have thought we could use some of that money for protecting what's left and replant.

Carbon tax is about making the rich richer and the everyone else poorer.
