The Destruction ofthe Amazon
        Rainforest




                     Aisha Brown
A rainforest is a tropical land, that’s usually tall with broad-leaved trees in an area which
gets a lot of rain. Most rainforests are located around the middle of the earth near the equator.
Many plants and animals live there. Rainforests are very important to the earth and are also
beneficial to us. They help clean the air that we breathe. Rainforests are not only good for
cleaning air, but they also give us chocolate, sugar, cinnamon, and medicine. The Amazon
rainforest is a good example of this. The Amazon Rainforest is located in Brazil but it is also
located in other South American countries including Peru, Venezuela, Ecuador, Colombia,
Guyana, Bolivia, Suriname and French Guiana. This Rainforest has been known as the biggest
rainforest in the world. It’s also been known as “Lungs of our Planet” because it provides the
essential cycle of turning carbon dioxide into oxygen.
