Amazon Forest Conservation - The Amazon Forest T-Shirt

The Amazon rainforest, also known as Amazonia or the Amazon Jungle, is a vast tropical forest located in South America, primarily in Brazil but also spreading into Peru, Colombia, Ecuador, and other countries. It is the largest rainforest in the world, covering over 2.1 million square miles and home to an estimated 400 billion individual trees representing over 16,000 species. The forest is known for its incredible biodiversity, with an estimated 40,000 plant species, 1,300 bird species, 427 mammal species, 428 amphibian species, and 378 reptile species. The Amazon rainforest also plays a crucial role in regulating the Earth's climate by absorbing and storing carbon dioxide and releasing oxygen. However, in recent years, the forest has faced significant threats from deforestation, logging, mining, and other human activities, which have led to a decline in biodiversity and an increase in greenhouse gas emissions.
