All the different tribes use materials they find in the rainforest to make their homes. Sample Slide Random Slides From This PowerPoint Show

Every year, people from outside the rainforest clear huge areas of rainforest. A lot of land that was used by the tribes is now used for farming crops such as palm oil, coffee, cocoa and rubber. Forest is also cleared to make way for roads and new cities and to mine copper, zinc and diamonds. Some wood is sold abroad to make furniture and for building. The Indian people worry that their forest is being destroyed. Sample Slide Random Slides From This PowerPoint Show
