When talking about Soy and Palm oil they always leave out the most of it is feed to livestock so we can eat them.
Replacing wild animals whit factory farmed animals.
@@ilisati Would you rather eat wild animals? Or would you prefer soy, and wipe out all the wild animals? You decide. Because it takes VASTLY more deforestation, herbicides and pesticides to grow soy, than it does to ranch cattle.
Well, that was the most depressing thing I've watched in a while. Something really does have to be done, we humans as a whole can't seem to see past the end of our nose.
It's anyone with a retirement account or money in the stock market. If they don't demand that investors shift from dirty, max-profit tactics, nothing we do will matter.
This is actually something, that we consumers can stop as a individual. We don't need politicians or corporations to change theirs mind - eat less or no meat and dairy, don't use paper bags, don't use products with palm oil, don't buy shirt every freaking weak if it's still a good shirt, etc. Just use your brain people and everything will be ok - USE YOUR BRAIN.
@@hahabanero Could NOT agree MORE!! We have free electricity as our house is small and runs now on solar. Tesla battery for night use.

so many people have so many fears, just by way of curiosity how many of you think it realistic to believe that humans will successfully tackle the issues such as global warming and gaining peace and security?
I live in Sweden and deforestation is a thing I see daily and something I have gotten used to. I can only remember one single bit of forest that have not been cut down since I was 10 years old. Just some kilometers away, maybe 4, alot of trees are being cut down to build houses, or just nothing and to just gain money. This leads to all the deers for example, comes down here to the fields, destroys the field and our garden because they have nowhere else to go. It really hurts me and I worry about climate change each day.
I really don't want to just watch it all happen, but what am I, a 14 year old, gonna do in a world where people just listen to "adults", those who did not listen when told that climate change was real, those who are making me grow up on a burning planet, dying species, rising sea levels and soon incredibly many immigrants who've lost their homes.
We're taught about it in school, but it feels like no one else actually understands the seriousness. If this don't go well, which is very much possible, each summer will come with immense heat, and therefore huge wildfires and dangerous smoke.
It feels like everything is hopeless about it sometimes, because even when I tell people about how worried I am and telling them what could happen, most just shrugs it off and says "They're probably gonna find some machine that will fix everything.", but to be honest, we already got those machines, but they cost too much and we can pretty "easily" life a more simple life that won't affect nature that much. The world kind of just care about money, until it finally sees that it needs to do something, though it's already too late when it does.
So I beg whoever is reading this, spread the awareness, try to make people see that it's already happening and that it will get much worse if we don't do something. We would get a planet with seas full of poison, air full of smoke, populations with extreme hunger, weather that is constant hell and people running away from their home. It might seem hopeless, but it ain't yet. Just try to make people hear and educate them, so they know that they need to live a bit more different lives and how.
If you don't want to do this, think of the coming generations, maybe younger siblings or cousins, you maybe even got kids, do it for them.
(Now excuse me if the text's grammar isn't great, just wrote this in a hurry and didn't have time to look if I've spelled something wrong. Have a good day, and thank you)
You have insight and care very much dont you, what if I told you that i am 100% sure that life WILL get better?
It is the very ones ruining the earth who themselves will be brought to ruin, unlike human society where the innocent ones pay for the greed and selfishness of others, Jehovah will only rid the earth of the wicked influences and he will only allow the meek [which biblically means those who are willing to be taught the right way] to live so that the planet and all living things will only benefit from his ways of only taking what we as a family need, = no waste no money issues as no mony just kindness and love. do you think man can achieve this? not at all Jehovah almighty God has allowed us these last 1000s of years to prove to ourselves we need him and he has promised to turn back ALL of the damage and even bring back to the earth those who have died once it is the world after war between mankind and JEHOVAH which in the bible is called Armageddon, so even this is not to be feared if we try to live the way he intended us to live in the first place. There are 100s of prophecies that are coming true in our time before our very eyes.go to www.jw.org for more information. May you find answers that will give you hope and peace and joy.
Since you're 14, let me give you some context. Here in America, 100 years ago, at the advent of oil and gas, people held forest clearings, a horse, maybe a cow and grew corn and beans. The wife had a smock, the naked children had no shoes, the father had a shirt, pair of pants and boots with no socks. That was 85% of America, and the forests were logged off from coast to coast. You can see the new towns photos built in the stump-farm barren hills behind. Ask your grandfather.
Then oil and gas blew gold dust over the entire world, and for 100 years we turned Earth back into the Garden of Eden. Today the Northern Civilizations enjoy incredible wealth and abundance amid lush greenery, clean air and clean water. When the New Climate Caliphate in Brussels starts TAXING that wealth, you'll see old people starving and children made orphans sleeping frozen in doorways. And all the forests will be cut down for fire wood by those who still have a home.
Eftersom du är 14, låt mig ge dig lite sammanhang. Här i Amerika, för 100 år sedan, vid tillkomsten av olja och gas, höll människor skogsgläntor, en häst, kanske en ko och odlade majs och bönor. Hustrun hade en kittel, de nakna barnen hade inga skor, pappan hade en skjorta, ett par byxor och stövlar utan strumpor. Det var 85 % av Amerika, och skogarna var avverkade från kust till kust. Du kan se de nya städernas foton byggda i stubbgårdens karga kullar bakom. Fråga din farfar.
Sedan blåste olja och gas gulddamm över hela världen, och i 100 år förvandlade vi jorden tillbaka till Edens lustgård. Idag åtnjuter de nordliga civilisationerna otrolig rikedom och överflöd bland frodig grönska, ren luft och rent vatten. När det nya klimatkalifatet i Bryssel börjar BEskatta den rikedomen, kommer du att se gamla människor svälta och barn göra föräldralösa barn som sover frusna i dörröppningar. Och alla skogar ska huggas ner för ved av dem som fortfarande har ett hem.
@@robertmarmaduke9721 wrong!!!...the forests in the northern hemisphere are artificial plantations. Or the direct cause of human interference centuries ago..they are mostly unproductive and lifeless....thats nothing compared to the tropical rainforests that are shown in the video....the rainforests of the tropics are more abundant than all other forests combined....they have wide diversity in ecosystems....what the industrial world did was transfer its factories or extractive processes to the tropics aka developing world...and they garden of eden that you say the west created is just that a well manicured garden...nothing else...the real paradise is the untouched rainforests where colorful birds sing and a million different species thrive....that's nature....
Take care, and stay healthy. I hope you can at least stay in love with the beauty you do have around you. I imagine it is most likely that the answers will come from your generation, and the one's a little older. It is a big burden, but you won't be so likely to believe so much in consumerism and endless growth.
The narrator saying forests are like 'the lungs of the planet' is essentially a brilliant wrap of the whole documentary

@@nuanceblacksywin4868 It is high time to stop deforestation.

Most people are living from paycheck to paycheck. They are too busy just trying to survive. Nothing will change until we get out of wage slavery.
Really, I am tired of this situation, the years pass and I see everything that I am in nature is starting to happen, little by little. I did nothing. I just watched nature programs and they warn about what is happening and I do nothing. My conscience hurts me every time I notice people. They do not care about this. Continuing to live the same way of life, I am really sick of this situation, a drought threatens my country, but no one speaks, 😞

Looking at them right now suprised me, a lot has been destroyed (and I mean a LOT)
I guess we're not just destroying some habitats and ecosystems, we're also destroying a shield that protects this beautiful planet. I am deeply sad and hopeless because the majority of people don't take these problems seriously.
We are doomed, period, the end.
Save Our Planet
This experience in the end.
When the deforested countries have droughts, will they be able understand why. Habitat destruction leads to species extinction then the end of humanity is imminent.
Some key information is left out about deforestation: that those soy farms largely go to feed the cattle, pigs and other animals that become meat for rich-world countries (who set the lifestyle aspirations for much of the rest of the world). That most processed foods are less nutritious and tie into diet-related health epidemics in America.
Solutions : eat food made closer to home, eat lower down the food chain, and demand products grown without conflict palm oil.
Unreal. Poor and rich, we all share the same air.
this is the most saddening picture. I have always been driven towards nature and saving it but i am afraid most of the humans are not aware or don't care about forests. These people from BBC and other scientist are trying their best to warn us but i feel many people are still unaware and something different needs to be done to spread this message.
I live in Pakistan and just today i saw trucks with logs of woods being transported and it really made me so mad and sad
I agree. I've heard several people bragging to me that they cut trees. As casually as they would say that they pull weeds. It makes me sick. People just don't know. Or they don't care.
At this point the message is irrelevant. This isn't just the problem of some "other" who doesn't know or doesn't care. It is our lives, all of us. From the rich countries to the poor. Everyone is playing a role. Even those who think they care are contributing to it.
@@GoogleIsNotYourFriend Unfortunately there are just too many of us here.
@@GoogleIsNotYourFriend it is mostly the world leaders, they do not care about this all they care about is money, I've tried to do my part but not eating meat and reducing electricity usage and using public transport but there's only so we can do, it's the world leaders that need to change

Searched about deforestation because of an essay writing competition tomorrow at school but after seeing this I feel so bad...I mean we didn't even think or was aware of it before.
I'm always reminded of deforestation. Lumber and fish are our only export where I live, so everytime I go out I think "oh, I don't remember that missing chunk of the mountain". The government won't do anything about it because we must "protect union jobs".
It's really depressing.
I'm very sorry to hear that. Where do you live if you don't mind me asking?
Every summer I go down to visit family in Priest Lake, Idaho, and every year I say the same thing
Yes.. but you'd vote for "economic growth" all the same. And you can't wait!

m, global population control. the families need to be taught they cant have endless amount of children!!! 1-2 children are what would have prevented Global Climate Change and the eventual Extinction of humans.
Johan Rockstrom should be a household name. 🚨🚨🚨
There are so many people who own land and waste it by planting lawns. If everyone who had a lawn used that land to grow food instead then maybe people would not cut down as much forest to grow food. Heck, why not grow palm trees for the palm oil in people's yards instead of cutting down rain forests to do it? Soybeans could probably be grown instead of lawns, too. Especially by people who don't use their lawn for anything else. I just think we're wasting so much land that has already been cleared while other people continue to cut more forest down. It doesn't need to be this way. 😔
oil palm only grows in tropics
@@zion3335 Bummer. Okay, soy then. And maybe sunflowers for the oil instead of palm. Brainstorming here. There has to be a better way than cutting down rain forests.

Palm oil is 2nd. Let's talk about the 1st reason.... *Top reason for deforestation: Animal agriculture.* Growing food to feed animals. Especially in places like Brazil, who's payed off by Canada, UK, and USA, to create massive grain, corn, soy felids to feed Cattle. We don't need to all be vegans, but we also don't need to consume this much meat in a system that taxes rainforest acreage. That's one of the reasons lab grown meat and plant based meat (you see Beyond Meat more and more now) is on the rise.

People tend to only show concern when major events or personal circumstances affect them. As humans, we often prioritize our own interests and fail to extend the same level of care and concern to others. This raises the question: why is it so hard to care for others? Perhaps it's because there's no monetary reward for doing so. However, if we want to make the world a better place, we need to start caring more. Though it may be challenging, it's important to start taking action now. After all, if we don't start now, when will we?

Change happens so fast, from day to day, from generation to generation. Humans created these problems and we can change them - we can change our habbits, avoid things like animal produckts and palm oil, and thereby demand change to the people who only listen to our money.
I agree completely. If enough people are willing, we can make positive changes.
Side note, how do you feel about soy? I'm torn. It is one of the causes of deforestation. But what if it's grown in an area that's already used for farming? I don't want to use animal products either. Especially meat. And soy definitely seems to be the closest replacement for animal products. But I don't want to participate in deforestation either. So, how do you feel about using ethically grown soy?
@@anyascelticcreations Well, it seems like the biggest reasons for deforestation is the animal industry in order to make space for animals and to grow the food they have to eat - and alot of that is soy. There are billions of animals, more than people think, who eat and drink alot more than humans do. So I don't think that the damage of soy used for things like tofu or other vegan products are the core problem, it is the insane quantaties used for animals. So ethically soy grow for human consumption sounds alright in my ears. I like what you wrote, so thank you for that and for asking questions. And, I would say that if it still worries you a bit, one thing is that it is alot better than animal products but also that there are alot of products based on wheat, peas or other things you could try out.
@@carothehonestpeanut Okay, thank you for the information. That does make me feel better. Unfortunately, I'm gluten intolerant, so no wheat for me. I'm also trying to avoid lectins, so right now I'm not eating legumes. Since I already don't eat meat, my protein sources are very limited. Soy is a go to for me. Unfortunately, what my body seems to do the best on is whey protein, which of course comes from cows. I tried going completely vegan, but it didn't go well for me. There is just too much that my body doesn't process well. I'm trying, though. I've cut down to only whey protein at least. And I think the tofu that I eat is from soy grown in the US. So, no rain forests involved. I really really hope the whey protein that I eat isn't contributing too much to the overuse of the world. 😔 If you know of a good vegan protein that doesn't involve gluten or legumes, I'd love to know.
@@anyascelticcreations Well legumes is the way to go for me, and then nuts and seeds. There is protein in everything, so if you eat enough that is not very low in protein, you should get what you need (unless you maybe work out and therefore you worry about it) I don't really think too much about it myself - just b12, sunshine and alot of different plant based whole foods, and junk food. I don't know why you are avoiding lectins, but I would say you should try to eat little amounts so you get better used to it. Just a little. But yea, I would say dairy milk is also a very big problem, so I would look to find different ways - does sound like you have some issues and that you try to figure it out, so don't be too hard on yourself - but dairy is scary.. I would actually really recomend Challenge 22 - it is something you sign up for for free, and then people will help you for 22 days to eat plant based and help you in any way they can - where you can shop near you, if you are on a budget or if you have things you try to avoid and need help finding alternatives - and then after the 22 days you say your goodbyes and you can use the knowledge you gained on your own. I never tried it, but I wish I had known about when going vegan.
@@carothehonestpeanut That challenge 22 sounds like an interesting idea. I might look into that. I'm avoiding lectins because of the inflamation and damage to the gut that they cause. For whatever reason, whey protein doesn't seem to do that to me. My overall inflamation and pain is less on whey protein than on legumes, unfortunately. There are fewer and fewer foods that my body seems to tolerate the older I get. Even a lot of fruits and vegetables now. I'm trying, though. I want to be healthy. But I also want the animal suffering and destruction of our world to end. Maybe that new fungus protein by Nature's Fynd will be available soon.
The comdedy in all of this is that.. the people who make this documentary are also in the first world consuming and are the reason behind all of this.
Okay. My current goal is to buy as much forested land as I can. To live on. And to save at least that. (That's been my goal for a while.)
Apparently I also need to make a new goal of using little or no palm oil. Starve out the industry that is causing this.
Same here 😂
I wanna that too, buy as much as i can, an then build forest to others beautiful creature. But not that easy.
Too build this amazing world take Million years
@@zuhrifaatiqmahfud9413 True, it does take time to build a forest. But I've heard of people doing it in as little as 40 years. I live in a place where there is already a lot of dense forest. It's selling quickly and being partially cleared to build houses with big yards. My goal is to buy as much of that as I can, (a place with a small house already on it), and use the yard space to grow my own food, including planting fruit and nut trees. And let the rest of my future land remain wild. I may not be able to save the whole world. But I want to save at least a few acres if I can. Hopefully you can, too. And hopefully many more will, too.
There are so many people who own land and waste it by planting lawns. If everyone who had a lawn used that land to grow food instead then maybe people would not cut down as much forest to grow food. Heck, why not grow palm trees for the palm oil in people's yards instead of cutting down rain forests to do it? Soybeans could probably be grown instead of lawns, too.

3:56 min - ...Nearly a third of CO² emissions are caused by deforestation 🤯
Carbon divide is not a big a problem as methane emissions. But bbc is clueless as always.
@@KneeJerkReactions13 What do you mean, as "always"
@@NiceDude24 bbc very often misrepresents or oversimplifies the science to the point where they might as well be blatantly lying..
And if you eat burgers and beef you are to blame.
Lets remove all that evil CO2 so the plants can thrive! /s
Plant a tree on your property or donate a tree in a park, lets fight this deforestation! Its fun to plant trees.togeather we can make a diffrence!
The tragedy of deforestation in Brazil is that it will actually lead to Brazil turning into a large desert and wipe out their agriculture industry that deforested the Amazon in the first place.
Ikr, ironic.
They say very soon it will become dry savannah / wasteland
@Jorn Paul Winkler
Man, you look old
hello good video
🤔 *we keep complaining and talking about climate change and even idea of unity for this dilemma yet most of us never dare to plant for a single tree or dramatcally avoid things & practices that contribute to the fast progressing climate change...* ✌
I can limit my use of plastic, start growing my food at home. Walk More. No cars, no public transportation. Volunteers at oceans to clean and rid them of debris and plastics and rubbish.. I can reuse my plastic water bottle and milk jugs and plastic cleaning supplies. Its the little that amount to the overall prevention of climate change
The words "Facts" and "BBC" should never be mentioned in the same sentence...
Please love our world
Governments from allover the World had ignored the years of tragic Deforestation & still ignored to day 2021 the continue thousands of thousands ectaras every day taking place and the answer is Nature is going to heal by itself????
Yes, without us, nature will thrive. We are just a cancer on this world
Nature will not heal until we stop deforestation
MAN WILL DESTROY HIMSELF BY HIS OWN HANDS 🧤!
Fear not. That privilege belongs to the Creator.

I’m not a pessimist, but as a realist I believe that unless something changes in the nature of we humans (me included) as a whole we will not solve the environmental and social issues we face. It seems to me that we have an unceasing desire for gain that needs to be checked. As for the many that do good things to try to help the state of the earth, I applaud each for their efforts.
As long as there is a demand for palm oil, there is no chance to stop deforestation. The question is, how to stop the demand?
