This is why I fear for the future.
youre name makes me fear the future -_-
ali abukhazneh your selfishness makes me fear for the future...
Egg and you were right its burning right now
and it’s burning now☹️
Little did we know
Every time I see the fields that used to be forests it makes me want to cry
Omg same
You need a doctor
Your land where your house is used to be a forest
@@ThugDollXOit HIGHLY depends
Every time I see a forest that used to be a field I want to cry
This is the dark age. I hope this video will motivate us to save the world. The world is like a mother's womb. If we keep doing this to our world literally we are destroying Mother Nature. The. World is a sacred place therefore we will have to worship the world. Hail Mother Nature.
Ill hail!
Nature doesn't care about us or anybody. It, and time, will roll forward with or without us and the 99.9% of all other species which lived here that went extinct before man came along.
nothing changes if nothing changes. we gotta work together to make this world a better place. build a cob home with a living roof make a Food Forrest and get some friends to buy up some property around you so you guys can all make a living paradise ;) free home, free food and if you build some small water towers or something like that you got free water too lol
End animal agriculture to save the planet
Bless you.
they should do a timelapse with the USA turning from forsts into malls :)
The world has more trees rn than it did several hundred years ago

Even if forested area are not decreasing, i bet Earth still loses most valuable ancient forests, replacing them with new planted trees. Quantity doesn't equal quality. Habitats still get destroyed, that's the way human cosy society rolls. Extinction event on par with any historical ones.
We have to remind people why deforestation is happning -- its animal agriculture. Today in class a university student expressed concern that the Amazon was being deforested to grow soybeans, which he assumed were for tofu and soymilk for vegans. When I told him that the GMO pesticide-laced monocrops were used to feed livestock, he was surprised.

most for vegan food now days
This is not happening just in the Tropics, it is also happening in the north, too. The Nordic countries and Russia are suffering from forest depletion. We must act and ensure that we don´t just cut down forests but that we also plant new forests.
we cant, we have plenty of trees, we just need to not cut them down so they can reproduce. the reason we havent done that yet is that trees can take a while to grow
thats why good silviculture is really important. Clearcutting isnt a problem per se, its if the area isnt maintained as silviculture but deforested to make space for something else. Good silviculture includes replanting the entire clearcut and only clear cuttign in small sections. The pacific north west has really good silviculture systems at work for sustainable forest management and wood production
Not going to say you're wrong, only 5% of Swedens forest is older than 150 years, BUT pretty much all of Europe was forest once and now it's all fields and living area, so I argue for more forest everywhere and not individual countries, just because Europe cut and burned their trees a long time ago starting in the stone age, doesn't mean that we should just rely on what's left and make sustainable forestation all around the planet.
noo, noo, NOO!! We need this oxygen and we need to slow global warming!!
Objectives a lot of oxygen comes from plankton in the ocean. not saying it’s right to deforest but it won’t deplete our oxygen sources
Nah, it will also be affected. The increase in CO2 will just make it worse in fact. There will be massive kill-offs and bleaching in the ocean if it does happen since corals and microorganism may die so.... Lose-lose situation.. also the fact that theres a lot of medicinal plants still not discovered yet, tribes living there, animals, trees, plants. The economy of the 9 countries sharing a part of the rainforest will go bad as well since 70% of the economy of these countries are actually dependent mostly on the Amazon based on agriculture and tourism. Need I say more?
lol
@@judegnelson
Actually, it will affect the plankton as well. They don't exist in a vacuum- they can only survive at a certain temperature, so the temperature increase caused by the Amazon deforestation will start to thin their population every summer.
This will create a chain reaction, reducing the population exponentially (because if for example 1/4 are killed, not only are 25% already gone, but now there is only 75% capability to restore the population number back.)
@@judegnelson how about we just leave plastic in ocean and see will plankot like that
If anyone tries to hurt the trees on my property, their dead.

we need to stop wasting everything. Trees, food, everything we are living meaningless lives without 0 care about all around us.We need to safe these trees from rich who wants to fill their pockets.
Then don't procreate.
WE NEED MORE CONSUMPTION. MORE GREED. MORE POWER. MORE FEAR.

It is quite often poor people who have no other choice but to resort to illegal deforestation as they have families to feed. The best way would be to develop the country so there are more people with enough wealth so as not to need to resort to this. It also helps to restrain from consuming products such as palm oil or beef since much of this comes from the Amazon and is one of the main causes for deforestation.
Great Animation, Love for Amazon from Bangladesh
If that’s what it looked like in 2010, imagine now 💀
Actually, I was thinking, instead of destroying the forest for roads and agricultural purposes, why don't they build all of this elsewhere, instead of the Amazon rainforest. Instead, why not so this when it's closer to São Paulo and Rio de Janeiro, for instance, when the land is flatter and less trees.
earth is pretty flat there
The Amazon is the largest continuous plain in South America, your comment is nonsense
Hey guys, Im part of a team working on a documentary in the Peruvian Amazon. We are telling the story of the Maijuna Indiginous people as they try to fight a road from being built across their ancestral lands. Help us protect the Rainforest! Search for Maijuna Film Project on Indiegogo to learn more and to donate
The world should pay Brazil and encourage the country to keep and replenish the rainforest.
the pursuit of money is what causes all this death, destroy their palm oil businesses
No country owes us mate. We need to learn to be more rational in our agricultural practices . Even without the Amazon we still would be the 7th biggest country by area, still bigger than India which has about 6 times our population. We would still have massive rivers like the Paraná or Sâo Francisco. There's no excuse for such a bad use of resources. Maybe because we have too much we think we don't need to use it rationally.
What needs to be changed worldwide is the consumerism culture , the debt based economy , which requires infinite exponential growth in a finite planet. I think more people are becoming aware of that. I still have hope : )
@@leandrodavila5975 "Even without the Amazon". What do you mean by this ? We should give the Amazon to countries that already destroyed their natural environments, make massive use of dirty energy sources, have a much bigger carbon footprint and are much more consumerist than us ? Trust me, Amazon is much better in brazilian hands. About 80% of the rainforest is preserved, with the deep jungle being almost completely untouched. The most devastated regions of the Amazon is the transition area between this biome and the Cerrado biome.
Now remember, there are over 20 million people in Brazilian amazon alone and they need food, power, jobs and want all the luxuries you have acess to. If we don't develop that region, those people will have no choice but going to illegal logging, illegal mining, illigal gold digging, illegal animal smuggling and all that stuff that destroys the forest as a whole. If we do not invest money to develop tourism in the Amazon and to create technological hubs in the area (mostly for pharmaceutical, biotechnology, and cosmetic industries) the cattle ranching wil still be dominant and growing.
But to achiev those things, we need to cut down trees. In short, the best way to preserve the amazon, when there are already 20+ million people living there, is by developing its economy. The more we try to cripple the economy of the states in the amazon biome in order to preserve the nature, the poorer they will be, and the more their people will depend on cattle ranching and illegal activities.
@@g.araujo1043 I didn't mean that we should give the Amazon to another country or to a supranational organization. I just want to emphasize the idea that our economy could thrive without destroying the forest.
@@leandrodavila5975 You are a smart person.
Man is the ultimate termite. A growing deforestation threat is clearings needed for obscenely large wind turbines and access roads that get excused as "necessary" by the quasi-greentech crowd.

This is just depressing. I wonder what the world would look like without us here...
it would look clean.
It would be beautiful
I wish it’s depopulation rather than deforestation.

The comparison in just 35 years is awful.
Its actually sad to watch the destruction of the amazon.
Deforestation offends me.
Lmao make videos treebeard
Being offended will do nothing...
@@optimalforager twas a joke
ahhhh that rain forest could be gone in days
i mean its burning to the ground right now…. been burning there now for 3-4 weeks
No, its impossible to destroy an area twice as big as India, almost as big as Australia, just in a few days.
The trees of the Amazon produce rain for croplands in South America, but even for North America. As deforestation progresses, droughts, like the one seen in the US this year, will be more severe and frequent, and famine will spread.
And the worst thing is, THIS WAS 8 YEARS AGO
Hello, I am making a website on deforestation I was wondering if I could put this on my website
Obviously one impressive important message. AND - thank gawd there is an AUDIO- MUTE control.
We do. Every person on earth knows that. Those trees are the main oxygen supply for us.
The rainforest dont coming back it takes million of years to grow:(
it doesnt take that long and tree slayer u are an evil axe
@@dhdusidjdjso AxEs DoN't KiLl TrEeS
No, it takes only a few decades.
what do you need it for, make to get some yumy yummy money into bolsonaro's pocket
Agustín R. Abarzúa it only consists of millions of important plant, insects and animals🙄 The forest with the biggest biodiversity in the world, developed over millions if years. And absorbs 2 billion tons of Carbon dioxide a year. So Its basically the most important ecosystem we have...
actually it is now well known that pre-columbian civilizations made extensive impacts on their environment, they used fire extensively to clear forest for agricultural practices, humans are as much a part of nature as anything else, beavers are also animals and they have very extensive impacts on their environment as well...
That doesn't mean it's good! We have an exponentially worse impact on the environment than beavers!
Thats the most stupid comment ever. Beavers cut down just a few trees, leaving the forest intact as a whole and the beaver cut down trees create precius habitat for bugs. Humans on the other hand convert entire vast ecosystems into a farmland inferno
Tbh we can't harp on South Americans and Africans without sounding like hypocrites. We've cleared most of our woods long ago so who are we to blame. To make it fair we either need to plant more woods at home (imagine entire regions reforested, maybe even towns and villages abandoned) or pay a green tax so these countries are compensated for the economic damage suffered by not clearing the woods and expanding their economy.
But the difference is.......this forest can never be "restored" we however, plant r"regrow" the trees taken! And those grow in a 30 year span, but these forests can never be given back!
karrie cline
Not true, it is harder because there is more biodiversity than in northern woods but hardly impossible and has been done before.
And even if true, the point still stands. If we want to not be hypocrites we need to make big, unbroken forests again in Europe and North America and also reintroduce some animals like wolves and bears. Except no one wants that because then we lose arable farm land, have to abandon some settlements and predatory animals become nuisances to farmers. Too often people in the west ask more of less priviledged people than they do of themselves.
At the very least a green tax or donations to SA and Africa to give them an incentive to save the rainforests is the least we can do.
1503nemanja actually it is true. 10s of thousands of tree species are thier not to mention all the bugs, animals and plants. The variety overwhelms the United States to say the least.
South Americans, you mean the indigenous tribes being genocided by the loggers inside their forest homes because they are in the way of the ranchers and loggers? Or do you mean the wealthy coastal civilisation that claimed their lands without even knowing what was inside? That drew a map around it and now say 'this is mine to do what i want with'?
This time lapse is not from a protected forest area...this is nothing more than a city with big farms being delveloped in a pretty regular pace....
If we take satelite imagens from any city in the world it would show the exact same thing.
Obs: about 60% of the original forest is still there in the Amazon...No place in the Planet has that % of original forest still present.
Latvia had 45% forestation 100 years ago. Now it's closer to 50%. Only problem is habitat and microclimate destruction due to clearing of ancient virgin forest. Even if forest gets replanted, it's not the same. England once was all covered in trees. Look at it now..
well that's just terrifying, #stopdeforestation
A lot of the deforestation is because of local people starting farms to feed themselves, if the people need to do that to survive I don't see an issue with it. That being said there is also a substantial amount of deforestation caused by external industries, this can and probably should be highly regulated.
They're not local people. They're people who have moved from the cities into the forest over the past few decades. And they're not doing it to feed themselves either. They're doing it because of the amount of money they can make turning the forest into cattle pastures or soybean fields.
@@danielward67a bunch of ***es
Thry should get an army here guarding the rainfirest non stop and not hecitate to arrest or shoot any farmer cutting trees.
I didn’t realize how much humans have destroyed our own planet
It's true, the loggers spread this way
We are doomed... this is our last warning, and we ignored it, face the consequences...
That looks like a single Landsat tile. Scary to think of how much we can lose in 115 miles.
Is it bad how I am more interested in the music and not the actual video meaning
always ready to do something when it's to late
hello, can I use this video for a contemporary dance performance about Nature?
and now it's on fire. good job brazil.
That's called dry season. There always have been fires in the amazon during august and september (mostly in the border areas with the biome "cerrado"). The deep jungle is pretty damn preserved. I don't know where you live, but the odds are the you probably live in a country that devastated its nature much more than Brazil.
There should be a treaty where if you are capable of growing a trees than 30 to 50 % of it has to be covered in forests

Why is there an advertisement for CAT? Funny how the ads always contradict the message of the video...
7 Billion people could live in harmony, whilst destroying and ignoring our natural environment. Over-population is a problem but reckless consumption of our resources is ultimately driving this destruction.
It so sad what our actions are being done having its affects on nature. :(
Lmao that's the brazillian state i live in
That escalated quickly.
Hey, uploaded a video against deforestation, cause I care about and I think everyone can do something against it.
Would be super glad if you give me some review!
What we do to our environment, we do to ourselves....
Hey, is it okay if i use this clip for my commercial just for a school project/homework this is just for my school no copy right intended, i will fast forward it, and i will give you all of the credit.
How'd that project go?
Does any of this include Palmas, Brazil?
yooo sick vid

Yeah, it's a good thing a lot of it comes from ocean life and we aren't even harming that at all.
Really hope that's a joke...
And what do you think the US did to his forest. So Brazil wants to develop himself and that is a problem but if the US destroyed all his forests since 1850 there is no problem?
+Ariel Goldfarb wut
There's literally almost no point in anything we do green if we don't save the Amazon. The UN should be fighting Brazil over this asap but I know they probably won't just like the US as a power house they should intervene but they don't care (I'm American/Brazilian FYI)

What about 2012 - 2020?
Is this true ? Those tree's don't grow back ? You mean to tell me they cut down tree's without replanting. I've lumber jacked before ( Dangerous work I do not recommend it ) and I specifically remember everything we cut down was replanted. They don't use the same method when cutting tree's down in the rain forest ?
+Targeted Individual Hello, i got no source right now to back this up with. but primary rainforest is not something you just replant, in fact I dont think you can in an effective way. + By replanting you are replacing a wide biodiversity with monocultures of 1 type of tree. Something to think about.
Martin Cedell Ah okay. I can in no way challenge you being that I am no scientist. Appreciate the educational lesson.
+Targeted Individual Also a lot of the forest the clear is for farmland, so they have no intention of reclaiming the forest
its sad that when people were born on 2006 more than half of the amazon was gone,.
It wasn't. We are reaching about 20% o the original forest lost. The Amazon is very big
oh let me just pick out the most deforested place in the amazon to fool people
Dude the amazon lost 20% of cover in 50 years. Humans are crawling further and further in with their chainsaws every year.
how many of you live in houses made of wood?
I do
and me
i dont
The animals are loosing there homes like the Great Kapok Tree
Yeah, tree for Brazil, progress for Europe and USA
Can I please use this video for a school project?
+Eleanor McFarlane same
No
A lot of people on a lot of high horses here! How many of you live in a building where a forrest once stood!
Remember you can always stop eating meat because it's the number 1 reason rainforests are being cut down and avoid palm oil
We need to Thanos the world so there won’t be as much meat eaters
Lol, this is laughable. Why do you zoom in only on one part.
Sky Darmos that’s how much deforestation happens in every spot.
Of course.
Let' s study the Willow Project in the USA
Now I remember where we are now ~
haha
Dear future generations, watch prince ea’s video called “Dear future generations,we’re sorry”
hi grae and great-grandpa!
if only more people knew about the story of Easter island
the problem is not deforestation ppl...the problem is OVERPOPULATION...thats ultimately driving deforestation
Actually, it's mostly the meat industry if you're talking about the amazon. But overpopulation definitely comes in a strong second
*Wow this was made in 2012*
Who’s here after the election of Jair Bolsonaro?
People better say goodbye to the Amazon, cause this video will be an even faster and longer time lapse under his reign!
and who are the consumers of this forest?

there is a update of this video?
so sad. poor animals that live there
it's still good thaf the amazon is on fire cause humans would go extinc, and tha earth can restore itself in no time
We are whats wrong with the planet
I don't think we'd go extinct
Lol human is countless lmao. And it's not good that is the amazon is burnin it produce pollution and deaths of animals.
Well this culd make most humanity extinct. Because when forest are cut the carbon is released into the atmosphere creating global warming. And due to the risk of chain reactions leading to runaway global warming, the earth could be so hot that we can no longer cultivate food anywhere. That would lead to mass starvations of billions of humans, with only small fractions of humanity surviving.
It's just so sad.
