WHY DO “HUMOR FOR THE AMAZON FOREST?” 
Certainly, the situation is not one to laugh at: areas of the Amazon Forest as big as the state of Sergipe have been deforested. The rhythm of the deforestation, which follows the rhythm of the economic development, has reached 30 thousand square kilometers a year (numbers of 1994) and nowadays it is about 23,7 thousand square kilometers according to INPE- Instituto Nacional de Pesquisas Espacias (National Institute of Space Research). If this rhythm keeps steady, there will be nothing left of the Largest Rain Forest in the world.
