Synopsis

Agriculture is a major cause of deforestation in the Amazon, as forested land is cleared to make space for livestock and crops to feed them. Consumers can help reduce deforestation by checking the origin of meat and demanding that supermarkets only stock certified products that do not contribute to deforestation.
