rainforests will be destroyed if people don't stop cutting trees and wasting paper causes. A beautiful landscape will be destroyed. Rainforests contain a lot of life. If they get destroyed then so many animals will be extinct.

The rain forest helps reduce the level of CO2 in the air and increases the amount of O2. If the rain-forest were to be cut down the levels of CO2 would rise and after time Earth would look something like Venus.

All of these are side effects of what could happen if the rainforests were to disappear. The rainforest filters over tewnty percent of our oxygen supply, so this would accelerate global warming. Also, 80% of the world's diet is thought to hold its origins in the rainforest, so potentially unique foods such as the peach palm, which holds as much carbohydrates as maize and has twice the food value, would be lost. 25% of our medicines are believed to have their origins in the rainforest, and potentially undiscovered ones would be lost. These could be revolutionary cures, such as the cure for leukimia which has been discovered.

The forest would die.The first thing would be that the insects that eat and live among fallen leaves and other debris and dead animals would no longer be there to break down the mulch which is used by the forests plants for fertiliser. so the soil would be come Les fertile. insects cry pollen from plant to plant fertilising the seeds that would top happening meaning that the plants that are replaced on a yearly basis would disappear. many animals that live in the Forest rely on ground plants to eat and for shelter. The whole system would be thrown into disarray and the vegetation in the area would thin out and nearly disappear.

Well the ecosystem would be shattered, and biodiversity would be ruined witch would cause millions upon billions of other problems. If you really want to know, look up biodiversity.

Many animals will become instinct and it will take almost a century for everything to restore and grow back.
