Did you know that the rainforests around the globe produce a major part of  our oxygen? Not only that, but they absorb carbon dioxide, slowing the warming of our planet. Rainforests are so important to protect, and they are in danger. Only 36% of our rainforests remain intact. The rest has been destroyed by us. And that 36% is shrinking fast. We need to urge our leaders to protect it. According to the National Park Service, 40%-75% of all biotic species live in rainforests. They are disappearing. It is our responsibility to protect them.
