Rainforerst

Temperate rainforests are rainforests in temperate regions. They occur in East Asia , in Central and South America and

also in Australia and New Zealand.

Where rainforest climate occurs?

Around 40% to 75% of all biotic species are indigenous to the rainforests. It has been estimated that there may be many

millions of species of plants, insects and microorganisms still undiscovered in tropical rainforests.

Animals and plants in rainforest

Rainforests are forests characterized by high rainfall, with annual rainfall between 250 centimetres (98 in) to 450

centimetres (180 in).

Rainfall

From temperate forests to tropical rainforests, deforestation continues to be an urgent environmental issue that

jeopardizes people’s livelihoods, threatens species, and intensifies global warming.

12-15 million hectares of forest are lost each year,

the equivalent of 36 football fields per minute.
