For thirty years I’ve been hearing about how a chunk of the rainforest the size of Idaho is getting cut down every day. How much could possibly be left?

Maybe some info on scales will be helpful. The Amazon and Brazil are huge. check the pic about USA and South America and the deforestation 1960-2006. The last years it’s become worse.
