                                         Out of Rainforests
Rainforest is a special, dark place completely different from anywhere else. A rainforest is a place where
the trees grow very tall. It is hot and humid in a rainforest. It rains a lot in the rainforest, but sometimes
you don’t know it’s raining. The trees grow so closely together that rain doesn’t always reach the ground.
Rainforests cover only a small part of the Earth’s surface, about six percent. They are found in tropical
parts of the world such as South America, Western Africa, Central America, Southeast Asia, Northeastern
Australia, and the Pacific Islands.
Rainforests provide us with many things. In fact, the Amazon Rainforest is called the “lungs of our planet”
because it produces twenty percent of the world’s oxygen. Eighty percent of the food we eat first grew in
the rainforest. Twenty-five percent of the drugs we take when we are sick are made of plants that grow
only in rainforests. Some of these drugs are even used to fight and cure cancer. But sadly, we're destroying
rainforests. In fact, 1.5 acres, or 6,000 square meters, of rainforest disappear every second. The forests are
being cut down to make fields for cows, to harvest the plants, and to clear land for farms.
