Brazil Traditional Life
All we want is to live our life without fearing that we may all die out. We are currently an endangered tribe. We grow crops, hunt game, and live our lives in the rainforest. That is all we want from the Amazon. Whenever we abandon an area after using it for crops, the trees grow back, so our way of life harms nobody and no thing. Our traditional lifestyle is very important to Brazil, and if we were to die out then our traditions would too.

This is the focus of Book Five in Gluckel’s memoir’s, she mourns over her husband’s death, engages in the kiddish, and continues to read the Torah day and night. A major theme within Book Five is the aspect of a positive Jewish community along with Gluckel’s ability to conduct business transactions while constantly traveling and almost always being aided by fellow Jews from the city. Also, she appears to have been an active and equal partner in all decisions with both family affairs and business matters. As a result, when her husband was asked on his deathbed whether he wished to leave any final words, he replied, “I have no instructions, my wife, she knows everything. Let her do as she has done until now.” (p151).…

    I personally don’t believe good stewardship and sustainable use of natural resources are being practiced. The farmers are burning the land to clear and make some space with isn’t a good thing for the environment. Having all that fire, isn’t safe for the community either. Trees is what a lot of animals eat without them, we wouldn’t have any animals. They go hungry sue to the lack of trees. In my opinion, if they are cutting trees down, they should just simply plant another. The suggestions I would make is that the people of Brazil should come together and talk before making a decision. People just need to understand that the Amazon is a beautiful natural resource and should learn how to use it wisely.…

This has happened in Brazil between the upper and lower class. Brazil is a country with a very small to non-existent middle class, causing a huge gap between the two classes. This huge gap is causing the us versus them mentality or a we/they divide between the upper and lower class, based on a process of social categorization.

    In many tropical countries, the majority of deforestation results from the actions of poor subsistence cultivators. However, in Brazil only about one-third of recent deforestation can be linked to cultivators. A large portion of deforestation in Brazil can be attributed to land clearing for pastureland by commercial and speculative interests, misguided government policies, inappropriate World Bank projects, and commercial exploitation of forest resources. For effective action it is imperative that these issues be addressed. Focusing solely on the promotion of sustainable use by local people would neglect the most important forces behind deforestation in Brazil.…

    While it was initially expected 5.000 families to be settled, more than 150.000 individuals migrated to the region (Schwartzman, 1986). These unsettled families started to clean new fragments of forest in order to find new and sustainable crop areas. In addition, the loggers complained by the lack of compensation provided by the Brazilian government in order to stop their activities in that area, and illegal logging started to play an important role as well (Mahar & Ducrot, 1998). After suffering with pressure of many activists’ groups, the project was halted in 1985 and concluded in 1990, with 9 years of existence (Schwartzman, 1986; P006319,…

Secondly, the Amazon rainforest is sometimes called the "lung of the world" because its production of over 1/4 of the world's oxygen makes it possible for us to breathe. The faster we eliminate forests, the closer we get to our own impending doom. Obviously, this behaviour is suicidal, and must be stopped.
