Read the passage and tick the correct answer
The Amazon rainforest, often referred to as the "lungs of the Earth," plays a crucial in maintaining the planet's ecological balance. Spanning over 5.5 million square across nine countries in South America, the Amazon is the largest rainforest on Earth. It is home to astonishing array of biodiversity, including countless species of plants, animals, insects, many of which are not found anywhere else in the world.
The rainforest is also vital for regulating the global climate. It absorbs vast amounts of carbondioxide, a greenhouse gas, and produces significant quantities of oxygen through the process of photosynthesis. However, the Amazon is under threat from deforestation, primarily due to logging, agriculture, and mining activities. Each year, thousands of square kilometers of forest are cleared, leading to habitat loss, decreased biodiversity, and increased carbon emissions.
Efforts to protect the Amazon rainforest are ongoing, with various organizations and governments working together to promote sustainable practices and conservation initiatives. These efforts include establishing protected areas, supporting indigenous communities, and enforcing stricter regulations on activities that lead to deforestation. Despite these efforts, the future of the Amazon remains uncertain, highlighting the urgent need for global cooperation to preserve this invaluable natural resource.
