Welcome!
Welcome to my blog! I have created this blog in order to raise awareness of the ongoing deforestation in the Amazon rainforest. Deforestation is a huge issue that puts many of the world's species of animals and plants at risk. Even if it may seem like it does not, the destruction of the Amazon rainforest impacts more than just Brazil and the other South American countries the forest resides in. The Amazon rainforest is responsible for producing 20% of the world's oxygen, so the removal of these trees also affects those of us who are not near it. Putting an end to deforestation in the Amazon is important to me because I think that taking care of our planet and environment is essential not only for us, but for the people who will be here after us. I hope that the creation of this blog will help inform people of what the continued deforestation of the Amazon will do to our planet, and help prove that each of us has the ability to help put an end to deforestation, even just in smal...
