https://youtu.be/SAZAKPUQMw0
You will have seen recently a lot in the news about the fires in the
Amazon rainforest and the attempts by world leaders to put pressure
on Brazil to put them out.
The history of deforestation in the Amazon has been long and

economic benefits of the destruction of the forest over the
preservation of them. Spend some time watching the VOX video to the
right (November 2019) and take notes using the framework sheet
below.
