Question

Large tracts of the tropical rainforest have been cleared for palm oil plantations across many countries. How is this likely to impact the biodiversity in the region?

Answer 1

It will decrease due to habit loss

Answer 2

say for example they’re birds living in the trees they’re cutting down. clearing these trees will destroy their habitats and ultimately result in the population of birds decreasing in the ecosystem. that means that whatever animal eats the birds as prey will decline as well; not enough food. whatever the birds eat will over populate as there’s not enough birds to eat them and keep the population steady. basically there will be messed up amounts of each species
