Save The Forests!!

The evolution of people and animals was only possible because of plants. Plants are the base of the food chain and the source of energy for almost all life on Earth. Forests are ancient, mature communities of plants and animals, with homes and places for thousand of species. Forests give us oxygen, food, shelter, medicines, fuel and furniture. Forests protect us from the heat of the sun, and from wind, cold and rain. Forests maintain the balance of nature, the environment, the climate, the weather and the composition of the atmosphere. As a matter of fact, forests are our life. But what are we doing? We are destroying the forests, meaning that we are destroying our life and future. All the problems we face today are made worse by deforestation. If we are thinking beings, we must save plants and forests, because they save us!
