    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.

      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.

    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.

That most processed foods are less nutritious and tie into diet-related health epidemics in America.

      I've seen a photo of glaciers back then, they were so huge to the point where I thought they were bigger and TALLER than skyscrapers.
      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.

    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. 😔

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?

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.

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 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.

Many measures are being taken to prevent this situation, but unfortunately, they are of no use.Consequently, environmental pollution is increasing. People are cutting the trees in the forest for their own purposes, for instance, some use the trees to make paper,oil and other things. Naturally this leads to forest degradation. And again in the autumn leaves fall,and people burn them and spoil the atmosphere. After cutting down the trees in the forest ,it is difficult to purify the air,for the reason that the trees and plants absorb carbon dioxide and release oxygen
