Deforestation

Hi,

Interesting topic. I think that is worrying that the way we are damaging our natural environment is coming back to hurt us. I guess it's karma???
Deforestation causes all kinds of problems with landslides etc, and this another worrying problem to add to the list.

My opinion

I also think this article is very interesting. I have never thought the link between rain forest and malaria. I think we should protect rain forest for human and environment.

My opinion

I think that this article is very interesting , too.

I agree with your opinion that you hope that Brazilian government measures this situation immediately and you think they should control Amazon rain forest.

When I had just finished reading this article, I shocked because rain forest disappear and malaria increase in years.

My thinking

I didn't know that 5% decrease rain forest mean increase 50% of risk malaeia.So we should consider about deforestation with not only enviroment destruction but all so malaria.

My pinion

I didn't know that a five percent increase in deforestation was associated with a 50 percent increase of malaria risk in these health districts. To prevent people form becoming malaria, it is important for us to protect forest

Amazon Deforestation Sparks Surge in Malaria

I think this article is very interestig. I was surprised that Amazon deforestation is associated with increase of malaria and I think that Amazon rain forest is very important for everything. Also I shocked at the fact that a five percent increase in deforestation was associated with 50 percent increase of malaria risk. Malaria is terrible disease, so I hope that Brazilian government measures this situation immediately and I think they should control Amazon rain forest.

How do you think about that?
