Rainforests

Rainforests are often called the lungs of the planet for their role in absorbing carbon dioxide, a greenhouse gas, and producing oxygen, upon which all animals depend for survival. Rainforests also stabilize climate, house incredible amounts of wildlife, and produce nourishing rainfall all around the planet.

WHAT WOULD HAPPEN IF THERE WERE NO RAINFORESTS??

​

First of all rainforests are home to about 50% of all land species, which means that if they disappear then 50% of all land living species on this planet would go extinct.

Third rainforests create about a quarter of the oxygen in our atmosphere, so there will be much less oxygen in the air.
