Rain forests fall at 'alarming' rate Besides what the article points out, the rain forest has many varieties of plant and other life.
Not only is that sacred but many new drugs and natural remedies are found constantly from these plants.
To wipe them out is unconscienceable and irresponsible.
Indirectly causing cures not to be found in the future thereby causing pain and suffering for those inflicted and their loved ones.
