| This is another reason why the rainforests are important. This tree with the fruits are food for animals. If we destroy the rainforest, the animals will have no food and no home left to stay in. |
"The global coverage by rain forests is dimished each year by human activities in order to support things such as agriculture, mineral resource exploitation, the hardwood lumber industry and urbanization."
This quote really stood out for me because it really told me that what was destroying the rainforests were humans ourselves. While we are here trying to figure out ways to help save rainforests, some of us are cutting them down even more. It really just says that what we're really doing is destroying the rainforests and doing nothing about saving it. What we're really doing is just making plans and thinking. We don't need to actually save the rainforests. As long as we let it be and keep it, it'll stay there. I think that what we really need to do is to persuade the people who are destroying other rainforests around the world to stop before all the rainforests are gone.

You are very thorough here! I think that your selection of a quote speaks to your concern over human choices and the way that we are acting in a way that doesn't match the urgency of the situation. I hope that you can become involved in Roots and shoots, GIN, or SAVE club, you will surely make a difference!
