Rainforest Slideshow!
Here's a picture of a young man draining rubber from a rubber tree in the Amazon. The white sap that looks like milk will be cooked and turned into rubber. This is a good way to use the products of the rainforest without hurting it.
This man can come back in a few months and collect more rubber from this tree without killing it, or damaging the rainforest. This is called "sustainable harvesting" and it is a very good thing to do. Sustainably harvesting the rainforest means you aren't destroying the forest to make a living.
