The Destruction of the Rain Forests: A Critical Analysis of the Environmental and Economic Aspects of the Debate.
This essay will examine the debate over the destruction of the tropical rain forests from a number of perspectives. It will be argued that the tropical rain forests, and the bio diverse ecosystems that they support, are of enormous significance to the planet's environment. This being said, it will also be argued that man is an integral feature of this environment, and that the economic systems that define human cultures must therefore be factored into any discussion of viable or sustainable development of the rain forests. 5 pgs. 21 f/c. 6b.
