http://www.davesite.com/rainforests

Extractions: The purpose of this paper is introduce the reader to the truths about the rainforests and its destruction. The rainforests are disappearing acres per minute, a number that grows so quickly it would be impossible to cite here because it would grow outdated within a week. The rainforests are home to over half of the entire species of the world, which are being destroyed with the rainforests. Unlike the rainforest itself which may appear to grow back, it will never be the rainforest it once was, and all of those species that were killed will never return again. Many of those species that have not yet been discovered may very likely cure cancer, AIDS, and many of the other diseases and viruses of today. If the rainforests disappear, so will most of the population of the world. This report will help the reader to learn more about the causes of the horrifying destruction, and ways that the reader can help stop it!

Backyard Rainforests Large Or Small **A Complete Guide**
A guide for beginners to plant selection and projects. Australia.
http://members.optusnet.com.au/~gardenweb/

Extractions: Planet Earth, which safely carries its inhabitants over 2.5 million kilometres each day, at an average speed of around 107,000 kph, can only perform this task with the aid of a very reliable and efficient shield. Its ironic, but its because our shielding atmosphere works so well that most people rarely give much thought to this gargantuan journey through our Solar System. The way that some of the so-called most intelligent inhabitants of this planet are deliberately damaging our atmosphere, can only be described as gross selfishness or ignorance. In one phase of atmospheric vandalism, they are burning the candle at both ends, by clearing rainforest on a grand scale then polluting the atmosphere by burning the very same trees which were filtering the air that you and I breathe. As well as being our natural air purifiers, and the oxygen suppliers to all that breathe, trees play an essential role in the hydrologic cycle. This is the process which releases water molecules to rise up into our atmosphere to form rain bearing clouds. To a great extent our weather is shaped by our vegetation, patchy areas of vegetation will most likely generate patchy weather. In increasingly larger areas around the globe, the prevailing winds are blowing over cleared land or concrete jungles. In the past they were passing over much larger tree-covered areas which were acting as moist sponges, where they would pick up the moisture to form a broader, more even band of rain-bearing clouds. Creating large bodies of water by damming our major waterways can only result in a concentration of water-evaporation, the end result allows the possibility of too much rain creating destructive floods.
