The world is warming. Glaciers are melting. sea level is rising. climatic zones are shifting. these changes are already taking place.
human activities make amount of carbon dioxcide (co2), methane and other trace gases increase. Emissions from fossil fuels (oil and coal) to produce energy are creating environmental havoc everywhere. Unprecendented amounts of their toxic by products are clogging the athmosphere with pollution, and poisoning water with liquid waste.
threatening to warm the globe's climate and change life on this planet.
Scientic and researches has concluded that world wide temperatures will rise an unprecendented 2 degrees within 35 years and more than 6 degrees by the end of the next century, if nothing is done to combat global warming.
The worlds needs trees. Lots of them to store the carbon produced by a growing population that is irreversibly industrialized. The forests are like giant utilities, providing an indispensable service to the stability of the planet. rain forest especially are carbon dumps. trees extract carbon dioxcide from the athmosphere, emit the oxygen and store the carbon in their leaves, roots and surroundiing soil. also store rain water in their roots.
Bropical forests (in equator, like Indonesia and brazil) cover some 6% of the world, but they are home for an estimated 60% of the world's species. And they are disappearing at an alarming rate. some biologists estimate that milions areas of forest is destroyed in the tropic each year.
We must do something to save our world.
