THEIR JOB AND WHAT THEY DO (CONT.) Factories- Cut down trees for plantations Animals- Spread around seeds and “plants” them Make trees and plants grow as well as fruits that tribes in the rainforest can live off Scientists- To go into the rainforests and try to find good uses for new plant specimens They find new plant species then use them in experiments to see if they can be used for medicine or something like that

THEIR JOB AND WHAT THEY DO (CONT.) Government- Help with world environmental issues Ask countries to sign agreements that say that their particular country will stop cutting down that much trees Conservationists- They try extremely hard to make people stop mining, logging, etc. in the rainforests They do protest and start organisations that help save the rainforest and the environment like Greenpeace and World Wildlife Fund Schools- They educate people not to pollute and destroy the rainforests

WHAT ARE THE EFFECTS IF THEIR RIGHTS AND RESPONSIBILITIES ARE NOT FULFILLED

TRIBES What happens if their rights aren’t met? The tribe will die out People will forget about them What happens if the stakeholder does not fulfill their responsibilities? The rainforest and the species within it will diminish faster than before because seeds of plants aren’t being distributed

ECO-TOUR OPERATORS What happens if their rights aren’t met? People will forget how they should treat/behave in the rainforest People will forget how important rainforests are What happens if the stakeholder does not fulfill their responsibilities? Rainforests will be in even worse conditions Different species will perish faster

FACTORIES What happens if their rights aren’t met? They can’t help/support themselves or their families What happens if the stakeholder does not fulfill their responsibilities? There would be unemployment

ANIMALS What happens if their rights aren’t met? Animals could become more aggressive because of the stress from everything happening around them What happens if the stakeholder does not fulfill their responsibilities? More animal species will die out More plant/fruit species will die out

SCIENTISTS What happens if their rights aren’t met? Cures for diseases that could’ve been found would’ve disappeared because scientists couldn’t explore and look for them What happens if the stakeholder does not fulfill their responsibilities? Animals could start acting up because scientists have made with the animals and they’ve reacted badly Cures that can solve current illness would be extinct

WORLD GOVERNMENTS What happens if their rights aren’t met? Rainforests will have even MORE threats working against the existence of them! What happens if the stakeholder does not fulfill their responsibilities? Rainforests won’t be protected at ALL anymore!

CONFLICT OF INTEREST

Deforestation Less rain Land become poor Bad effect to Farmers Good effect to Building companies

Deforestation Tribes Lose home Lose shelter Factories Need to provide jobs for people Need more land for a larger request
