Coffee production is destroying Brazil's forests

Stop deforestation and start sustainable coffee farming. Coffee Plantations Are Causing Massive Deforestation in Brazil, and We Will All Suffer the Consequences      Sign Now      Arfin,   The world's thirst for coffee is causing massive deforestation in the Brazilian rainforest. A recent report found that a whopping 42,000 square miles of forest are gone in areas with high concentrations of coffee-growing operations. Ironically, these very practices that are ramping up coffee production actually make coffee harder to grow in the long-run. It's time for legislators to take action!   Sign now to tell the Brazilian National Congress: HALT coffee-related deforestation immediately and create a regulatory plan to grow coffee sustainably!   Trees are essential for soaking up and releasing moisture in rainforests. This is exactly why deforestation tends to lead to drought. Brazilian deforestation has been a crisis for over a decade, and it is time the Brazilian National Congress take this issue seriously. Coffee-related deforestation must be immediately halted until regulators can come up with a plan for the industry to slowly and sustainably grow coffee.
