    I have no idea how big an acre or a hectare is, I have no idea who the people the article is referring to are. I see 0 mentions of the effects this will have on global climate. All hallmarks of a US centric article. This is not world news and it clearly caters to American interests.

    Edit: I’d love to read an article about the global ramifications of this on the whole planet in its entirety, but I’m not too keen on reading about governor XYZ of state UVW bashing republicans and The Congress.

    That’s internal US politics that I have no interest in starting my day with.

    The exposition that you've latched onto is typical of news articles everywhere. As with countless others, the article conveys more than that. You don't have to value the exposition. The headline conveniently gives you all you need in order to decide whether to skip it.

    The news here is that a significant portion of the world's trees, upon which we all depend, are being put on the chopping block. I consider that world news, just as I do when Brazil does it.

      I think any single nation making big environment and climate wrecking moves should count.

        The community rules state no internal US news. Plain and simple.

          No, internal news would be "US cuts down forest in the US" which has absolutely no impact on the world at all. No other country is involved. Just the US. Meaning this is internal US news.

            Its pretty easy to search a conversion. 58m acres is about the size of the entire UK.

              If you don't even know how big an acre or hectare is, you are either very young or you missed basic schooling.

                And, again, World is not for US News.
