Deforestation - a part of the climate discussion !
A simulated chance of the climate:

on the HIRHAM4-model at DMI.
The four graphes represent dec-feb, marts-may, june-aug, sept-nov.

Man-made causes:
Contrails from the aircrafts is a discussion coming up in the climate
debate.

We aspecially studied the deforestation in Rondonia, Brazil.

The next 3 satelite photos show the development
from 1975-1992.

The background of deforestation is not only caused
by an economical demand for tropical trees, but the growth of population
in Brazil since 1970 created a big amount of people asking for land.

generations coming up.
