Amazon rainforests
provide huge amount of oxygen to our planet.
Apart from this,
Amazon rainforests are
home to many tribes, rarely found herbs and millions of animals and birds.
In the 20th century,
Brazil’s rapidly growing population settled into major areas of the Amazon
Rainforest. The size of the Amazon forest shrank dramatically as a result of
settlers’ clearance of the land to obtain lumber and to create grazing pastures
and farmland.
Amazon rainforest does
play a major role in keeping Environment healthy.
But, in last decade we
can easily see that many forests have been on target of humans and they are
doing every possible thing to gain profit from them, even if it's cause
problems to environment.

burning since last month and still, there is no control over fire the whole
world seems worried on this.

going to turn Amazon rainforest into some yard for cattle’s so they can sell
meat and earn money.
Planet Earth is

melting and what not.
The actor Leonardo dicaprio was raising funds which will be directly sent to local NGO'S so they take action on their level and try to put a ban on fires in Amazon jungle.

on natural sources.

business over there.

and help of government could be found quickly
