Save the Amazon Rainforest

Target:
The Amazon Rainforest
Sponsored by: 
The amazon rainforest is the largest rainforest in the world. It covers 2.5 million miles of South America. But this magnificent rainforest is in trouble. With native people and large companies threatening it's survival, we need to help out. Rain forests are considered the "lungs of the world". Also, when plants such as the huge rainforest trees are killed, they release carbon dioxide, which instead of acting as a good thing in stopping Global Warming will turn into a nightmare. We need these forests to be alive. Without them, we will be at the point of no return. If these forests continue  to disappear at the alarming rate that they are now, many possible medicines and ways to treat diseases will be lost due to the biodiversity in the forests. Please sign this petition to say that you're ready to save our rainforests!

We all must realise that the time to act is now, otherwise it will be to late for future generations to do anything even if they wanted to. Please see common sense, save the rainforest, save ourselves.

The Amazon rainforest is the oxygen of our world. It covers2.5 million miles of south America. It has trees, plants and flowers that may help in curing people of non-cure-able disease. /there are tribes of people which their homes and life-style too. Not to mention the hunderds of animals, birds, insects etc. We need these forest to stay alive and the live within the forest.
