Essay / Research Paper Abstract
8 pages in length. There can be no argument against the fact that tropical forests give life to the entities who flourish within its protective cover. The effects of deforestation and logging upon indigenous populations comes in many forms, including issues of air quality, food supply, shelter, protection from predators, habitat, population and climate concerns. Inasmuch as man has overpopulated himself right out of having a sufficient amount of supplies upon which to exist, he has taken to infiltrating some of the most delicate and precarious of regions – such as Amazonia, Madagascar and Indonesia – and inevitably butchering them beyond recognition. Those who are left behind to suffer the consequences of lost biodiversity are the inhabitants who are hard pressed to adapt to any other form of environment. Bibliography lists 12 sources.

protective cover. The effects of deforestation and logging upon indigenous populations comes in many forms, including issues of air quality, food supply, shelter, protection from predators, habitat, population and
climate concerns. Unquestionably, "mother earth has given much responsibility to trees" (Anonymous, 2002). Inasmuch as man has overpopulated himself right out of having a sufficient amount of supplies
upon which to exist, he has taken to infiltrating some of the most delicate and precarious of regions - such as Amazonia, Madagascar and Indonesia - and inevitably butchering them
beyond recognition. Those who are left behind to suffer the consequences of lost biodiversity are the inhabitants who are hard pressed to adapt to any other form of environment.
"Forests have virtually disappeared in 25 countries and will continue to vanish unless governments change their policies and practices now, an international commission warned in proposing new initiatives
to save the worlds trees" (Anonymous, 1999, p. PG). II. AMAZONIA Among the myriad conditions created by deforestation in Amazonia, erosion plays
a particularly hazardous role, which effectively ties into the issues of food and habitat. The existence of indigenous species necessitates trees for shelter and food for sustenance, both of
which are removed by deforestation and logging. However, as these trees are systematically taken from the tropical forests, they leave behind no protection for the soil quality that is
now exposed to the elements. "The decrease in deforestation over the past two years could create the false perception that the problem is being resolved, whereas the situation really
is alarming" (Osava, 2002). With each drop of rain, the soils nutritive value is washed away, leaving nutrient-poor vegetation for the inhabitants to
