That's not a good metaphor because there isn't a single entity destroying all the forests. If, say, Exxon, was destroying all the forests, I'd for sure not be trying to save the Amazon but trying to stop Exxon instead.
There isn't a single entity killing black people in the US (police forces are highly localised, and the original campaign was about a vigilante murder and not caused by the police per se, but the failure of the justice system to convict a murderer)
