2. Worlds largest
rainforest, “Lungs of the
Earth”
Cattle Ranchers vs.
natives; to cut or not to
cut
Although the way the way
that the cattle ranchers
use the Amazon rain
forest’s land and
resources is
important, the way that
the native Amazonians use
the resources are more
important because their
methods better help
preserve the Amazon
rainforest.
3. To make the
Amazon rainforest
a big cattle farm
“We help support
Brazils economy”
“We are using our
resources”
It destroys the
already
threatened
rainforests
4. To live peacefully in
the rainforest
“We have been here
for a long time and
we have never
harmed, we simply
live beside.”
They don’t destroy
the rainforest, they
unlock the
mysteries within.
That is their home.
5. Cattle ranchers are harming the
rainforest, where they don’t even
belong. Natives are simply living
there not harming
Although the way the way that the
cattle ranchers use the Amazon
rain forest’s land and resources is
important, the way that the native
Amazonians use the resources are
more important because their
methods better help preserve the
Amazon rainforest.
What is the broader significance of
your ideas and/or Why should
