scientists refer to as climate change. Climate change has caused the Earth’s average temperatures to rise over the past several years. These rising temperatures drive many natural disasters; including hurricanes. Historically, hurricanes and other tropical storms are the most dangerous, deadly, and costly natural disasters.

Rainforests are forests which grow in areas of high rainfall between 250 and 450 cm. Typically, there are 2 types of rainforests – Tropical and Temperate. The least known type of rainforest is Boreal. Tropical rainforests are warm and moist that are found near the equator that receives 175 – 200 cm of rainforest annually. In contrast, temperate and boreal rainforests are found at high latitudes – northern and southern hemispheres. They occur in the temperate zone and receive heavy rainfall annually

The rainforest is known for its intricate network of lifeforms and its delicate ecological balance. With over 15 million species of animals and plants, its great diversity classifies it as a unique, self supporting environment. It can be found in parts of South and Central America, Southeast Asia, parts of Africa, Southern India, and Northeastern Australia. These locations are all near the equator, in between the Tropic of Cancer (23.5°N) and the Tropic of Capricorn (23.5°S). Since it is located

Rainforests today are disappearing at an fast rate as a result of deforestation for purposes such as logging, agriculture, and livestock. Countries like Brazil say that the economies need these industries and that deforestation of the amazon necessary. “Apart from emphasizing the sheer scale of the mightiest rainforest in the world--even the loss of a Texas-sized patch leaves more than 80 percent of it intact--these comparisons are not very useful for helping the concerned citizen judge what is really

coastlines become more susceptible to damage and flooding; tropical storms and high waves would be the ones that could make the most damage if coral reefs were to disappear. Of course, not only we are the ones to be damaged by this, but other animals in the marine ecosystem too, like sharks. Sharks work in the ocean and in coral reefs by cycling nutrients between it and the open ocean, removing invasive species, and getting rid of weak fish carrying disease; if coral reefs were to disappear, then sharks would
