Discuss how life of the people in Amazon basin slowly changing

Dear Student,
  • Majority of the population in the Amazon basin depend upon the huge biodiversity of the forest for their survival.
  • Their cultivation is slash and burn type.
  • Fishing and hunting are the ways they use to get food.
  • The local population have been affected vastly by the invasion of European who used the river and other areas for their transportation.
  • The local people were forced to go inside the forest for their survival.
  • Also, setting up of hydroelectricity plants by the government have changed their lifestyle to a great extent.
  • Industrialisation, deforestation, mining and oil exploration have played major roles in bringing in changes in their lives.

Hope this helps.

Regards
