Mother Earth, like us, also have lungs.

Our rain forest are not only badly preserved, but are destroyed day by day by companies who use ancient trees to make all sorts of things. They are also polluting the seas and they have so much power that no government can stop them. If you search at a toolbar, you will see how many miles the Amazon Rain Forest had, let´s say, 10 years ago, and how much it has now.

Here they are destroying jungles like any thing for past 50 years, now we see the bad effects, weathers have gone mad, no regular rains, wether is gloomy to mention a few, are you talking og forests in Philippines? Thanks for sharing Best of luck. Professor

This would mean that we need to plant more trees and take good care of them. Not just simply planting trees, trees needs nurturing as well.

Hi thetis74! Forests are a precious gift of nature and the sooner mankind learns to value them, the better, I believe. I can not say particularly for the rain forests, but what I CAN say is that forests help in balancing atmosphere, lithosphere and the hydrosphere. Control of carbon dioxide level, replenishment of oxygen, precipitation, rise of water table, prevention of soil erosion, addition of humus to soil, survival of wildlife: these are all the doing of forests, to name a few. Indeed, rain forests induce precipitation over larger areas and have luxuriously rich wildlife. Hence, preserving them becomes even more essential. I hope people understand that soon! Have a good day!!
