15 Serious Threats to the Rainforest That You Should Know Initially, about 200 years ago, over 14 percent of the earths land was covered by rainforest. Today, only about 6 percent is left. This change has been caused by the massive destruction of the rainforest. The loss of the forest is known as deforestation. As

Mining operations clear forest to build roads and dig mines. Governments and industry clearcut forests to make way for service and transit roads. Hydroelectric projects flood acres of rain forest.
By making way for other drivers of deforestation, infrastructure and mining together pose perhaps the greatest threat to forests and biodiversity, Haupt said.
Mining infrastructure is one key form of offlease deforestation, researchers say. This includes worker housing and new transportation routes roads, railways and airports. Built by mining companies or developers, these routes also enable other forms of deforestation, including agriculture, which remains the leading cause of Amazon forest loss.
27/7/2012#0183;#32;Gold, copper, diamonds, and other precious metals and gemstones are important resources that are found in rainforests around the world.

Mining has always been an environmentally disruptive activity, but contemporary extractive industries are located in some of the most ecologically sensitive forests in the boreal and the tropics. Oil, gas, and mineral extraction account for an estimated 7% of global deforestation in the subtropics, with increasing exploration and development taking place in the Amazon and Congo basins.
Jul 31, 2020#0183;#32;Tigers are increasingly facing a threat from mining and this threat could intensify in the coming years if the focus on boosting this sector continues. The mining sector is currently high on the Indian governments agenda to give an impetus to the slowing economy following the COVID19 pandemic. While ill impacts of ongoing and proposed []
Mining for metals like gold, copper, and aluminium not only require clearing forests, it also contaminates forest ecosystems with pollution and runoff. In the Amazon, illegal mining is a growing threat that is leading to forest loss and contamination of key river systems.
