	"Policy and market failure alone cannot explain rapid deforestation, concludes [[Sven Wunder]] (Centre for Development Research, Copenhagen), and finds that with current technologies, market prices, and disparate stakeholder interests, [[natural forest use]]s in [[Ecuador]] tend to yield less income than alternative land uses, mainly [[agro-pastoral]].

			However, there are some activities that can probably be stopped by changes in purchasing patterns. [[Mangrove]] forest loss may be one of these. [http://www.wrm.org.uy/deforestation/mangroves/book7.html While the list of mangrove deforestation horrors is too long to list here (see this whole book)], all the [[buying criteria]] has to know is: where is this [[shrimp]] from? ([[Burma]], [[India]], [[Bangaladesh]], [[Cambodia]], [[Thailand]] and some South American countries have particularly bad records). Was it caught or farmed? All sustainably farmed shrimp (small family operations) stays in the country and is consumed where it is grown. Exported farmed shrimp is always from unsustainable operations that must be shut down.

			Other factors like [[charcoal]] production, again, and [[oil and gas exploration]], do tremendous damage to these forests, which are critical to survival of [[inshore fishery]] (hatchlings live in the roots of the mangroves and shelter from predators there as a critical part of their life-cycle).

'''Deforestation''' is a [[bad thing]] and figures in some [[worst cases]]. Unfortunately, it's hard to imagine how [[threats]] could exist, other than "all forests disappear and all things on Earth die as a direct result".

[[Charcoal]] and [[tantallum]] are thwo things whose creation often cause deforestation.
