How Does Cutting Down The Amazon Rain Forest Affect Living Animals?

Pretty much, cutting down the Brazilian rain forests only affects those animals which live there.

Bummer for them, Ho-hum for the rest of the world's animals.

Disreputable alarmists might make a fuss about how the deforestation affects global oxygen levels (never been detected) and might alter global weather patterns (possible but so what). Only people filled with fears and phobias have a problem with change. They see every change as bad. So if the cutting of trees causes it to rain a bit more over here or a bit less some other place, the planet adjusts and adapts. What is wrong with some places being a bit drier than other places, or a bit wetter than other places? Don't we celebrate environmental diversity?

Geez. I feel like planting a tree. Then cutting it down.
