Deforestation in the Amazon

A new brazilian government led by jaer bosinaro took office in two thousand 19, facing an unemployment rate over 12%. Bosinaro made good on his campaign promises to scale back the amazon protections and nations put in place in two thousand five. Cleared land provides an immediate economic benefit to the owner. 70 % or so of the cleared land of the amazon is in cattle pasture. It's just as easy to understand why people cut down the forest.
