Answer: Can be found at http://2greenenergy.com/cool-guess-answers/8732.

Relevance: According to rain-tree.com:

If nothing is done to curb this trend, the entire Amazon could well be gone within fifty years.  Massive deforestation brings with it many ugly consequences-air and water pollution, soil erosion, malaria epidemics, the release of carbon dioxide into the atmosphere, the eviction and decimation of indigenous Indian tribes, and the loss of biodiversity through extinction of plants and animals. Fewer rainforests mean less rain, less oxygen for us to breathe, and an increased threat from global warming.
