Answer 1

The immediate causes of rainforest destruction are clear. The main causes of total clearance are agriculture and in drier areas, fuelwood collection. The main cause of forest degradation is logging. Mining, industrial development and large dams also have a serious impact. Tourism is becoming a larger threat to the forests.

When deforestation happens in tropical rain forests the effects are more devastating. It is because humus topsoil in tropical rain forests is known to be very thin and lacking in nutrients, so when deforestation occurs, the topsoil that is left behind is very vulnerable and will tend to wash away and erode easily. After deforestation in tropical rain forests, the only thing left is very poor nutrient, hard, clay-like subsoil that is not rich enough to sustain most forms of agriculture.

Answer 3

Deforestation is a serious matter with Tropical Rain forests, and when you get rid of the forest you have one thing left.... rain, it will cause floods in the areas where the forest used to be. But deforestation is caused by loggers, slash and burn, and farmers. But what most farmers don't know is that the soil there is so thin that their crops will use up all of the nutrients in one season of growing, this will cause more logging and etc.
