It's kinda easy if you're a government, you can simply ban it or something similar, no rocket science

No but it is forestry, which when it comes to legislating gets complicated.

No one can cut down any trees is... not practical. You've got a tree about to fall on your house, people need some firewood etc.

You can't cut down a forest.. well lets define a forest. Then someone divides 100 acres up into 5 acre "development plots" and cuts those all down.

You put in a reasonable forestry program. Your neighbor clear-cuts the mountain above you and you get washed out in a mudslide.

Yeah, every time a government bans something everyone immediately stops doing it and the problem is completely solved.

True, you're correct. But I assume in their case is that corporation are deforesting to plant soybeans for cattle and palm oil. I think here is the problem, not the dude that is doing contraband.
