The amazon rainforest is located in brazil and its area is 5.5 million km². The amazon rainforest is a tropical rainforest. The amazon is incredibly important for it contains wildlife and freshwater. destroying the amazon may not have much effect on the amount of oxygen produced because once the oxygen the amazon produce is released it consumes it but cutting it down causes animals to lose their habitats causes many animals to go extinct. The amazon is amazing and should be left alone.
Agribusiness is an agricultural related business Eg Selling farm equipment or seed. this is all over the Amazon rainforest from selling of heavy machinery, seed, animal transport and Tree clearing machines. Agriculture is the process of clearing land or preparing land for growing crops and plants. What types of agriculture occur in the amazon rainforest include Farming for vegetation and logging occur in the amazon rainforest. Agriculture and agribusiness effect on the amazon basin is devastating leading to countless animal habitats being destroyed grazing is also bad because it takes up to 1.8 acres per cow (if the cow eats all year) and could even be higher with different breeds of cows the effect of this causes massive parts of the amazon with no grass or little plants. In brazil people still could use agriculture but there was a limit you could take because people still needed jobs and we still need to produce products but the new president of brazil Jair Bolsonaro (elected 1/1/2019) has removed this rule now logging and agriculture has spiked up 88% from last year and is rising.
Some management strategies for the amazon rainforest include “Protected areas, industry corporation and satellite monitoring”. A group called ARPA (amazon region protected Areas) is protecting specific parts of the amazon rainforest essentially making borders with laws saying you can chop down this tree or grow this plant or raise your animal but as soon as you cross that line you would be shut down. Restricted access to land, restricted amount a company is allowed to take. These are working as overtime the amount of the basin damaged has gone down for the 4 years it was put in action. Why are they working they are working because restricted access mean less land to destroy and less animals on the land and with the second one it stops people from over taking fruits or trees or to much gra ing essentially turning the land into a desert. now since the new president has been elected these rules have been thrown out and the amazon is slowly being overtaken by agriculture and logging.
Differences food sources to beef exist like Bugs, tofu or Lab grown meat. Bugs have high protein in a small packet 120 calories in 1 cricket, tofu has the lowest as 100g of tofu has only 8grams of protein and lab grown meat has a very similar composition to real beef but isn't in the same as the structure of it is just something that falls apart so more like a sloppy joe meaning it falls into the uncanny valley. Benefit of bugs is that they are common and said to taste like chicken, tofu passes the uncanny valley and taste like to product its mimicking but has a very low protein level per 100 grams and lab grown meat is great it taste like meat and has close to the same protein level as mead but falls in the uncanny valley it looks like something you would give to a dog or cat as it food not for humans. The negatives of bugs is that it will be near impossible to convert everybody to bugs because of looks, as tofu downfall is when it comes to taste and protein it taste like a watered down version of the food and the protein is incredibly low and with lab meat it's the uncanny valley this is the effect that happens when the human brain thinks that it a food that's good but at the same time as bad.
What should be doing is developing lab grown meat because the more we develop it the less it costs and the more we get since lab grown meat can be made in a relatively small area stops the isu of land clearing and it also only need one cow to work to harvest the cells from the cow to grow them and to get the serum for the meat and the more money we invest in it the more viable it becomes and this saves the amazon how well it saves land and stops desensitizing areas and keep the amazon the same size as it was
