The Rain forest needs a hug before its too late

The World Rainforest Fund is working to save rainforests throughout the world, with emphasis on the Amazon Rainforest. Rainforests are being destroyed at the rate of 300 acres per minute worldwide. this is equivalent to the loss of an area half the size of the state of California annually.

The World Rainforest Fund works with local groups to provide assistance, advice and grants to protect endangered rainforest lands from destruction.

Preventing extinction of the world's biodiversity About 50% of the world's species reside in rainforests. The destruction of rainforests is therefore causing the greatest mass extinction in the biological history of the earth.

The World Rainforest Fund, founded by the distinguished evolutionary biologist David Seaborg, is a leading non-profit environmental group, working to promote biodiversity, save endangered species from extinction, prevent global warming, and protect delicate ecosystems from destruction. Science demonstrates that through photosynthesis plants play a vital role in converting carbon dioxide to oxygen. So conservation of both tropical and temperate rainforests is essential if we are to avoid the greenhouse effect, which has already caused severe droughts and had a devastating effect on the earth's atmosphere. But we need your help. Please donate to the World Rainforest Fund in order to save trees and wildlife habitats from clearcutting, and to promote public awareness of ecology and the inter-relationship of all forms of life on this planet.
