Bradley 19 Packs of stacks of facts!!

Hi Everyone!!
Did you know that12 percent of the land in the world is covered in rainforest? These forests have between 50 to 90 percent of all animal and plant species!!

The oldest ecosystems on the earth are tropical rainforests.

In SE Asia Fossil records enable scientists to show that the forests have been around for 70 million years in their present form!!

Between 1981 and 1990 rainforest was destroyed at the rate of 70 million hectares a year!!

The most diverse range of rainforest on any continent exists on the continent of Australia.

I got this information from G, Pyers "Australia's Rainforests" Binara Pub 2004

Cheers
Bradley :-)
