deadly deforestation and the loss of biodiversity

Deforestation is a major issue. It is why now we see palm tree oil farms or houses or factories where trees  were. That is why we see videos of trees being cut down in forests. Do you really want later generations to not know what a rainforest is until they do history?  

Biodiversity (video on the bottom right) is the species, types and plant diversity  tied together
