All scientists and environmentalists agree that rainforests are forests characterized by
biodiversity and high rainfall, with annual rainfall between 250 and 450 centimeters. There are
two types of rainforests: tropical rainforests and temperate rainforests. Tropical rainforests are
characterized by a warm and wet climate with no substantial dry season: typically found within 10
degrees north and south of the equator in areas such as South America, Southeast Asia and Africa.
Temperate rainforests, however, are only found in few temperate regions around the world such as
Europe, North America and East Asia.
Around 40% to 75% of all species live in rainforests. It has been estimated that there may
be many millions of species of plants, insects and microorganisms still undiscovered in tropical
rainforests. Tropical rainforests have been called the “jewels of the Earth” and the “world’s largest
pharmacy”, because over one quarter of natural medicines have been discovered there. Rainforests
are also responsible for 28% of the world’s oxygen; that is why tropical forests are also called “Earth’s
lungs.”
Rainforests produce many items that we all use in our daily lives. Tropical rainforests provide
