Some important resources of the rain forest are exotic animals and plants that can hold cures to illness like cancer. (or medicinal plants.) Trees are also an important resource for they get a lot of carbon from the atmosphere.
B. What are some of the costs of the destruction of the rain forest?
Some of the costs of the destruction of the rain forest can be no fertil land. When farmers start destroying rain forests, the soil doesn't stay fertile for long, therefore when the soil is no longer good, the farmers move on to other ground; leading to more carbon in the atmosphere and no more rain forest.
C. What are some factors that might slow destruction of the rain forest?
Governments not allowing their economy to develope even more until there is some kind of balance restored or brought. Governments buying rain forest lands to save and persevere the forest (debt-for-nature-swap). No more farming on rain forest lands or any forest for that matter. No cutting down of the trees in the rain forests.
4. What might happen to the rain forest in the future?
There may be no more rain forests in the future, I say this because cutting down rain forests is like how we go fishing. It's already proven that by the year 2050 that there will be no fish at all, so I'm guessing if not that year then earlier that year we will have no more rain forests, then we would move on to plain forests and pretty soon after that no more trees! No trees to collect carbon from the atmosphere, therefore putting a higher risk of global warning even higher. God will not save us people! Pretty soon it would me like Dr. Sesus's book the Lorax. Save the trees people and save earth!
