Amazon Rain Forest
The Amazon rain forest, which covers approximately 2.7 million square miles
(7 million sq km), is the world’s largest tropical forest.
Located mainly in Brazil, the Amazon rain forest accounts
for more than 20 percent of all the world’s tropical forests.
Known in Brazil as the selva, the rain forest is
a vast storehouse of biological diversity, filled with
plants and animals both familiar and exotic. According
to estimates, at least half of all terrestrial species
are found in tropical forests, but many of these
species have not yet been identified.
Tropical forests contain many valuable resources,
including cacao (chocolate), nuts, spices, rare hardwoods,
and plant extracts used to make medicines.
Some drugs used in treating cancer and heart disease
come from plants found only in tropical forests. But
human intervention—logging, mining, and clearing land for
crops and grazing—has put tropical forests at
great risk. In Brazil, roads cut into the rain forest
have opened the way for settlers, who clear
away the forest only to discover soil too poor in
nutrients to sustain agriculture for more than
a few years. Land usually is cleared by a method called slash-and-burn, which
contributes to global warming by releasing great amounts of carbon dioxide into
the atmosphere.

Amazon Rain Forest A floresta amazônica, que abrange cerca de 2,7 milhões de milhas quadradas (7 milhões de quilômetros quadrados), é a maior floresta tropical do mundo. Localizado principalmente no Brasil, as contas floresta amazônica há mais de 20 por cento das florestas tropicais todo o mundo . conhecido no Brasil como a selva, a floresta tropical é a grande reservatório de diversidade biológica, cheio de plantas e animais, tanto familiares e exóticos. de acordo com as estimativas, pelo menos metade de todas as espécies terrestres são encontradas em florestas tropicais, mas muitos deles espécies não foram ainda identificados. florestas tropicais contêm muitos recursos valiosos, incluindo cacau (chocolate), nozes, especiarias, madeira rara, e extractos de plantas utilizados para fazer medicamentos. Algumas drogas usadas no tratamento de cancro e doença cardíaca provenientes de plantas encontradas apenas em florestas tropicais. Mas a intervenção humana - o registo, mineração e desmatamento para plantações e pastagem - colocou florestas tropicais em grande risco. no Brasil, estradas cortadas na floresta de chuva abriram o caminho para colonos, que limpar afastado a floresta apenas para descobrir solo muito pobre em nutrientes para sustentar a agricultura por mais de alguns anos. Terra normalmente é eliminado por um método chamado coivara, que contribui para o aquecimento global pela liberação de grandes quantidades de dióxido de carbono para a atmosfera.

Amazon Rain Forest The Amazon forest, which covers about 2.7 million square miles (7 million square kilometers), is the largest rainforest in the world. Located mainly in Brazil, the Amazon forest accounts for over 20 percent of tropical forests around the world. known in Brazil to the jungle, the rain forest is a vast reservoir of biological diversity, full of plants and animals and exotic family both. according to estimates, at least half of all terrestrial species are found in tropical forests, but many of these species have not been identified. tropical forests contain many valuable resources, including cacao (chocolate), nuts, spices, rare woods, and plant extracts used to make medicines. Some medicines used to treat cancer and heart disease come from plants found only in tropical forests. But human intervention-logging, mining and deforestation for plantations and pasture-has tropical forests pose a great risk. Brazil, roads cut in the rain forest , paved the way for the settlers, to clear away the forest only to find very poor soil nutrients to sustain agriculture for more than a few years. Land is usually removed by a method called secondary burning, which contributes to global warming by releasing great amounts of carbon dioxide to the atmosphere.
