If that keeps up, in 100 years the earth will loose half of its rainforest. Almost 80% of the world's species are from the rainforest. In just 3 acres you could find 300 species of trees. In a temperate forest you could only find 10. Rainforests only cover 6% of the earth's surface. Nurses use the rainforest to find new medicines, drugs, and antidotes from the various types of plants that live there. ===
