Destruction of the Rainforest

Did you know that the plants, fungi and animals of the rainforest all have a job to do such as bees that carry pollen between flowers; birds spread seeds and fungi, which helps rot the leaves. They all depend on each other so if one disappears so many other plants and animals will be too. Animals and plants are in danger of being extinct (dying out) also deforestation is destroying peoples homes as well as the homes of many of the worlds beautiful animals and plants. Help protect the rainforest now!!!! By Samia

Loggers are destroying the rainforest

My animation is about fair trade in the rain forest

Did you know that the mines destroy trees and cause pollution with poisonous chemicals like mercury. And millions of loggers build roads deep into the forest so that they can get their machines in and the logs out.
And also about half the rainforest that existed at the beginning of the 20th century were destroyed by the year 1999. By Rahath

Why not meet Georgia the gorilla, Pepe and his son.

What is the problem in rainforests?

Why should we save the rainforests?

What is fair trade?

Loggers, miners and ranchers deforest the rainforest even though you could get cola, chocolate medicine and many of the fruit and vegetables from the rainforest. Did you know that 60 soccer pitches are how much of rainforest are being lost every minute! The rainforest acts like the lungs of the world! By Imtiyaaz
