Conclusion
To date, the Amazonian forests are considered the “lungs” of our planet. They are able to absorb huge amounts of carbon dioxide, releasing oxygen. The main problem is the massive deforestation of America in order to obtain valuable timber. Destroying trees, a person deprives millions of animals of their habitual living conditions, namely: their homes. No less detrimental effect is exerted on plants and other microorganisms. In addition, deforestation exposes the earth and as a result of severe rains, a large amount of soil is washed off. Because of this, the restoration of flora and fauna in the near future is not possible.
