Reasons to keep the Amazon

The Amazon Rainforest is a massive area in South America where lots of wildlife and trees live. Here are reasons to save it.

1. Trees provide us with oxygen and takes carbon dioxide out of the air (It's not good if we have to much
CO2 in the air)

2. Over a quarter of the modern medicines we have are made from trees. If we cut them down they won't be any.

3. Trees keep soil in place so without trees, soil would be scarce.

4. They also give animals places to live. Without trees, those animals would die out.

5. The Amazon holds most of the world's water. Without the trees, we would have a lot, LOT less water.


The world's biggest rainforest and second biggest river needs your help.
