Maybe, but to me, it would be as if we dug into a prairie dog's tunnels, killed them all and stole whatever little bits of food they have. It just doesn't make sense.

So how is it that the amazon is disappearing? Coincidence or human interference?

Humans have demonstrated a cycle of 1. exploitation to the point destruction, 2. Realisation of the damage they have inflicted, 3. Green washing and band-aid fixes 4. Rinse and repeat.

Be it waste handling, colonisation, industrial revolution, slavery, oil extraction etc etc.

At least for the time being, prairie dog tunnels seem safe.
