50 years ago, the forests of the Philippines were more extensive and diverse, providing habitat for a wide variety of plant and animal species. However, deforestation and land conversion for agriculture and development have significantly reduced the forest cover, leading to biodiversity loss and environmental degradation. Efforts are now being made to protect and restore the remaining forests in the country.
Palawan has the largest forest in the Philippines. Did you know that almost all of the Philippines was once completely forested? As of 1988, Palawan contained 7,410 square kilometers (km2 )(54 percent) of total forest remaining. At the time this was the highest percentage of any of the Philippines' large islands. Palawan itself is the sixth largest of the Philippine Islands. Sad to say, habitat destruction like logging and shifting cultivation/slash-and-burn (kaingin) brought much threat to the diverse fauna and flora of the ecoregion. Today, scores of animal species and plants are endemic, endangered or threatened. - Manuelle Gwen I. Bayeng
it did bilions of years ago but its all dried up now
When the continents were all together, they were called supercontinents. The Earth is thought to be 4.6 billion years old. The oldest theorized supercontinent is Vaalbara, which may have formed 3.3 billion to 3.6 billion years ago. The oldest known supercontinent is Ur, which formed 3 billion years ago. The Kenorland supercontinent formed 2.7 billion years ago. Columbia formed 1.8 billion to 1.5 billion years ago. Rodinia formed 1.1 billion to 750 million years ago. Pannotia, which also is called the Vendian supercontinent, formed 600 million to 540 million years ago. Pangaea formed 500 million to 200 million years ago. Laurasia formed 200 million years ago. And the last supercontinent was Gondwana. But that title may be held only temporarily by Gondwana. For the future may hold possibilities of one or two supercontinents within the next millions of years.
There have been tsunamis through all of Earth's history. They did not just start in the past 20 years.
No. The milky way did not exist at all, fourteen billion years ago. According to the Big Bang theory, the first galaxies started forming at least a million years after the universe had started to expand.
The megalodon is an extinct species of shark that lived millions of years ago. They swam all over the world and died out a long, long time ago.
Incorrect. Most forests are elsewhere.
All Those Years Ago was created on 1981-05-11.
it was about 1 billion years ago.
40 years ago, it was 1974. All you have to do is subtract 2014 and 40 to get the answer.

all i no is many years ago
4,000 years ago
Nobody knows for sure even if they were all together. Some people believe that they were together billions of years ago others don't believe that they were all connected. Another answer: The land was mass called "Pangea" and was around 250 million years ago.
no, not is all areas
