Question

Which most important forest for global environment?

Answer 1

Amazon rain forest-,The territory of the Amazon Rainforest stretches across nine countries, representing over half of the world’s remaining rainforests. About 70 per cent of the total forest area is in Brazil and Peru. Heavy logging in the past decades reduced the original forest area of about 7 million sq km to 5,5 million sq km.

The Amazon Rainforest hosts a wealth of biodiversity and valuable freshwater resources. It does not only play a crucial role for global biodiversity conservation, but also provides essential ecological services as a carbon sink.
