INTRODUCTION Worlds largest rainforest,
“Lungs of the Earth” Cattle Ranchers vs.
natives; to cut or not to cut Although the way the way
that the cattle ranchers use the Amazon rain forest’s land and resources is important, the way that the native Amazonians use the resources are more important because their methods better help preserve the Amazon rainforest.
CATTLE RANCHERS To make the
Amazon rainforest a big cattle farm
“We help support Brazils economy” “We are using our resources”
It destroys the already threatened rainforests
NATIVE AMAZONIANS To live peacefully in
the rainforest “We have been here
for a long time and we have never harmed, we simply live beside.”
They don’t destroy the rainforest, they unlock the mysteries within. That is their home.
CONCLUSION Cattle ranchers are harming the
rainforest, where they don’t even belong. Natives are simply living there not harming
Although the way the way that the cattle ranchers use the Amazon rain forest’s land and resources is important, the way that the native Amazonians use the resources are more important because their methods better help preserve the Amazon rainforest.
