Map Of Tropical Rainforests Of The World Activity

Welcome to our exciting new activity that will take you on a journey to explore the magnificent tropical rainforests of the world. In this article, we will provide you with useful tips and information that will help you to understand the importance of these precious ecosystems and why we should protect them.

What are Tropical Rainforests?

Tropical rainforests are dense forests that are found around the equator. They are characterized by high rainfall and humidity, and are home to a diverse range of flora and fauna. The Amazon rainforest in South America is the largest tropical rainforest in the world, while other notable rainforests include those in the Congo Basin, Southeast Asia, and the Pacific Islands.

Why are Tropical Rainforests Important?

Tropical rainforests are known as the "lungs of the planet" because they produce oxygen and absorb carbon dioxide, which helps to regulate the Earth's climate. They are also home to millions of species of plants and animals, many of which are still undiscovered. Additionally, many indigenous communities rely on rainforests for their livelihoods and cultural practices.
