This is because though the tropical rainforests cover only about 2% of the world’s land surface....they are home to more than 50% species of animals and plants.

The Rain Forests are being depleted at an alarming rate .........

If you check 'em.....half the problem of global warming can be checked.

Besides saving our poor iguana pondering over where to get its next breakfast !
