Question

Large tracts of rain forest are being cleared out in South America. Could someone explain what effect this will have on the carbon-oxygen cycle?

Answer 1

It is not just the trees ,even algae recycles our air. Don't condemn the people in south America for doing what we have already done. I lived &worked in the upper Amazon basin in Ecuadoe with a co. It was a vishous fight to just keep our roads open. It Rains 100 in. per. year and eveyr thing grows . I have sean fence post on a wire fense sprout and grow . The plants are the master down there if the jungle doesnt get u the fungus will.

Answer 2
