I think that is true for wood/ pulp for paper, but agriculture is a big component. In the US, we really didn't have to wipe out forests to make room for agriculture.
also, although unpopular, its easy to bull doze over our forests, do our thing, and let it grow back.
where i grew up every 15~ years tractors and such go through wiping out many of the trees and reshaping the landscape, but it doesnt take very long before you never would know they were there.
that doesn't apply as well in many parts of the Amazon
