An absence of correlation

Ecology and Equality have clear relationship with Development. Vertical or horizontal distributuions of country's data imply they are cause and/or result of under-developments.
But how about deforestation? People in low HDI countries make a living on the forest while affluent countries consume not their own but others' forest, that blurs correlaton.
