In regards to deforestation to make medicinal products, is it possible we could be loosing a resource that will be vital to us in the...

Deforestation for making anything for human use an
activity is non-sustainable/ This means that such activity cannot be continued for very
long period. At some time the deforestation will reach such a level that there will be
no forest left for further deforestation, and in such a situation such an activity will
come to a stop automatically.

However, I am sure that we
can extract medicines from plants without causing deforestation. As a matter of fact,
availability of medicines from plants could be used as a motivation for protecting and
increasing the forest area by plantation of trees that yield
medicines.

If currently some people are destroying forests
to extracts medicines out of plants, such practices are unnecessarily destructive and
clearly against long term interest of humanity. Such activities must be stopped
immediately, and replaced by better methods that yield medicines from plant, and at the
same time protect the forest covers.
