Deforestation

Right now in the world, we have a huge deforestation problem.

Our forests are disappearing and animals are dying because we are ruining their habitat. In the last 50 years 15% of the Amazon Rainforest has disappeared because of us. Imagine in 100 years!

1.6 billion people worldwide rely on the forest, that’s why we need to be super careful with how we use it and what we use it for. You can be a part of saving the wildlife, our forests and potentially the human race, you can protest against future plans in your community, start a petition and simply just educate yourself because if we all know what’s happening we will be aware. Take the time to get educated to stand up for our forests and environment because we are the only ones that can save them.
