Hey Everyone.
I've done some research and I have noticed that the rainforest is being cut down at an extremely fast pace and is in serious danger. I never knew of anything i could do to help so i investigated, but before i give you the ways you can help, i should give you the fast facts so you might want to help.
The biome, the rainforest covers 6% of the Earth. In comparison to like the decidious forest, its a very small portion. All though it is a small portion of the Earth it contains 1/2 of the worlds organisms and contains plants and animals that could potentialy help stop diseases. However we may just destry those creatures that could save lives if we don't stop destroying the rainforest. 2000 trees are cut every minute and 1 acre is cut every second. Also 40 species and 20 acres of rain forest are killed per minute.
