RainForests...
will the green become grey? 
 
 
RainForests have the most diverse ecosystems on earth, because of all the animals that are there! A kingdom of colour, movement and beauty.. that are my words to descreve a RainForest!
But as my wish was that everything was perfect and the RainForests were in no danger at all, that doesn't happend and the only being who should thank the RainForest for everythings is indeed the guilty of all the destruction :(
 
With the "Slash and Burn" Deforestation, road building and cleaning whole areas of forest for cattle pasture (yeah and now if you relate it to burgers...you should guess what i mean!), the RainForests are dying, getting weaker and weaker...
 

 It is sad(or even more than that) to say that 100,000 square km (39,000 square miles) of Rainforest are destroyed every year!

And more... do you know how much of the original Atlantic Coastal RainForest in Brazil is left?   2% !! We should really make a move now or else, there wont be much left if we don't put a stop to the "Greedy Man".

And a even more concerning are the species that can become extint if the RainForests keep on being destroyed.

Look at these animals.. the RainForest are home of many many species, and that just can't be ignored.

 
Will the lungs of the Earth be gone? What will we be without them?
