    Hopefully not because they’re running out of trees

      The limiting factor isn’t that they run out of trees; it’s that if you cut enough down the local climate flips, and stops being moist enough to support the plant community which lives there now. This has happened locally in a few parts of the Amazon.

      They’re somewhere near that point, but what’s changing things is that a different government got elected.
