DESTRUCTION OF THE RAINFOREST IS THE MOST CRUCIAL ECOLOGICAL ISSUE FACING US TODAY ON THE PLANET
50% OF ALL ANIMAL AND PLANT SPECIES COME FROM THE RAINFORESTS
AN ACRE A SECOND, THE SIZE OF 20 FOOTBALL FIELDS PER MINUTE ARE DESTROYED IN EVERY DAY
50 LIFE FORMS BECOME EXTINCT EVERY DAY
70% OF PLANTS WITH ANTI-CANCER PROPERTIES COME FROM THE RAINFOREST
A TYPICAL 4 SQUARE MILE PATCH OF RAINFOREST CONTAINS UP TO 1,500 SPECIES OF PLANTS, 750 SPECIES OF TREES, 400 SPECIES OF BIRDS, 150 SPECIES OF BUTTERFLIES, 125 SPECIES OF MAMMALS, 100 SPECIES OF REPTILES AND 50 OF AMPHIBIANS
AT THE CURRENT RATE OF DESTRUCTION ALL THE RAINFORESTS MAY BE GONE BY THE YEAR 2000
THE CURE FOR DISEASES SUCH AS AIDS MAY DISAPPEAR WITH THE DESTRUCTION OF THOUSANDS OF PLANTS AS 20% OF OUR MEDICINES ARE DERIVED FROM TROPICAL FOREST PLANTS
BURNING OF THE RAINFORESTS CONTRIBUTES TO THE 'GREENHOUSE EFFECT,' SEVERE CLIMATIC CHANGES WILL EVENTUALLY LEAD TO DEVASTATION ON A MASSIVE SCALE WORLDWIDE UNLESS THIS ACTION IS HALTED
IT TOOK A HUNDRED MILLION YEARS FOR THE RAINFOREST TO EVOLVE AND ONLY 40 YEARS FOR MAN TO CUT HALF OF IT DOWN.
