Every molecule of CO2 traps heat in Earths atmosphere, regardless of whether the CO2 comes from the tailpipe of a car, the smokestack of a coal-fired power plant, or the burning of a tropical tree. The more rainforests are deforested and opened up in terms of access, and the more population growth expands in proximity to these environments, the more that future generations will be exposed to future pandemics., Peter Daszak, president of EcoHealth Alliance, a US-based non-profit dedicated to analyzing and preventing pandemics, elaborates on this in the Guardian: One-third of emerging diseases are the product of these rapid changes in land use, as people are pushed into contact with wildlife they would once have rarely encountered..
