rain forest 7 global warming

2. Rain Forests
 . A Rainforest can be described as a tall, dense jungle. The
reason it is called a "rain" forest is because of the high
amount of rainfall it gets per year.
 World’s oldest ecosystem
 Seen all around the world
 Recives upto 33 feet of rain per year
 Richest biodiversity in the world
 Lungs and skin of Earth

3. Scattered around globe
 . Rain forests in the world are.
1. Amazon (Lungs of Earth)
2.Daintree
3.Alaska
4.The Congo
5.South East Asian

5. HIGH AMOUNT OF RAINFALL

6. RICH IN BIODIVERSITY

7. LUNGS AND SKIN OF EARTH

8. Importance of rain forests
 Rainforests are responsible for 28% of the world's
oxygen turnover.
 House for more than 50% of the world’s Biodiversity.
 Protect form Global warming.
 Prevents Soil erosion.
 Protects Environment against floods and droughts.

9. Global warming
 Global warming is a steady rise in Earth's
surface temperature.
 Temperature is caused by increased concentration of
green house gases.
 Green house gases
a. CO2 b. Methane
c. Ozone c. Nitrous Oxide
e. Water Vapour

10. a. Burning of fossil fuels.
b. Deforestation.
c. Industrial Processes.
Causes

11. Effects
a. Rising sea levels
b. Alterations in Ecology.
c. Increase in surface temperature of earth.
d. Adverse effect on marine life.

12. Relation Between
Rain Forest and
Global Warming

13.  When trees are cut down and burned or allowed to
rot, their stored carbon is released into the air as
carbon dioxide. And this is how deforestation
and forest degradation contribute to global
warming.
Ex. Amazon forest fire.

14.  global climate change and more deforestation will
likely lead to increased temperatures and changing
rain patterns in the Amazon, which will
undoubtedly affect the region's forests, water
availability, biodiversity, agriculture, and human
health.

15. The Amazon is burning
over the past few weeks devastating forest fires have
been spreading across the Brazilian Amazon depleting
carbon-absorbing forest and emitting millions of tons
of carbon dioxide into the
