Not all environmentalists see Maggi in a completely negative light, however. He is known for respecting private property, he doesn't allow any land to be cleared illegally he doesn't make use of slave labor, and he is careful not to use agricultural chemicals within 500 meters(0.3 miles) of a stream. "We're very responsible environmentally and socially," Maggi says To Maggi, deforestation is an exaggerated issue. He thinks people fear it because they do not understand how enormous the Amazon really is"All of Europe could fit inside the Amazon," he says, and we'd still have room for two Englands." And what does Maggi think of Dorothy Stang's vision of small growers living and farming in harmony with the land? Totalmente errado completely wrong," Maggi says. He believes that such projects as Stang's won't succeed because they don't take the laws of business into consideration He believes that it is useless to fight the big business model because it makes the most efficient use of the land and can maximize production. As production grows, prices fall to levels such that it is no longer feasible for small producers to compete without a great deal of financial help
