"Deforestation of great forests"

For this post I´m going to talk about this article entitled “The world´s remaining great forests”. As we know, the great forests are vital to the health of the planet. Many years ago, we were surrounded by them and this contributed to have clean skies, but now we have less and less of this ecosystems. Also, because of this, many animals have been extinct all because we have destroyed their ecosystems, the place where they have been live so far.

In the past, our planet was covered in ancient forest an now 80% of them have been destroyed by us in the search of our survival; in the search of basic elements to survive on the Earth such as wood and food, killing anything in our path.

With the deforestation of the great forests we are contribute with the increase of lethal gas in the atmosphere such as carbon dioxide, and because of this we are experimented what we call as “Global Warming”. Also, as I said before, many of the original species that were once on Earth are no longer with us as a direct result of deforestation. That’s why I’m sending this message to all, we have to protect our planet if we don’t do it we will pay a high price for this. It’s time to correct our actions!!!!
