Humans make a huge impact on ecosystems, here are some of the many things we do that are slowing destroying the Daintree.
Logging affects the Daintree Rainforest because if the loggers go and cut down all the trees and sell the timber for money there will be no rainforest left.
Farming affects the Daintree Rainforest because farmers burn the rainforest in order to clear land for more farming.
Development is affecting the Daintree Rainforest because people are destroying the rainforest to build houses, roads and infrastructure.
Mining is a problem because miners clear the rainforest and dig up the ground to extract minerals.
Tourism is a problem because as interest in the Daintree Rainforest grows, more buses and transport is needed to keep up with demand and that increases the carbon dioxide and impacts on climate change.
As a consequence of human impact over 120 local animal and plant species are threatened. Example, the Cassowary is a threatened species and there are only 2,000 left.
