Tropical Forest of the World

A tropical rainforest is one of the earth’s spectacular natural wonders. From its name we know that rainforest is very wet. A forest is called as a rainforest when it receives around 400-1000 cm of rain every year. That’s a lot of rain! Los Angeles, for example, only gets 40-80 cm of rain every year.

There are a lot of rainforest in tropical areas, because in tropical areas there are two seasons: wet and dry seasons. During the wet season rainforest receive a lot of rain and so do they in the dry season. In the dry season, the water in the ground evaporates and becomes clouds. When the clouds get heavy, they fall to the ground and become rain.

Tropical rainforest are very important. They control the world’s climate and give the Earth a lot of oxygen. The plants in the rainforest are very useful for people’s life. People can get their food, houses and medicines from the rainforests. Rainforests also become the house of a lot of animals. About 90% of world’s animal and plant species live in the rainforests.

Unfortunately, rainforests are now in danger. People clear the rainforests by cutting the trees. Every year the world loses about 0.3% of its forest. We cannot replace a rainforest. When we lose a rainforest, we lose it forever because it takes about 70-100 million years to get the rainforest back. That’s why we must help to preserve rainforests. When we preserve them, we also preserve our life.
