Losing the rainforests may also influence wind and rainfall patterns, potentially causing certain natural disasters all over the world.
In the past hundred years, humans (begin) destroying rainforests in search of three major resources: land for crops, wood for paper and other products, land for raising farm (animal). This action affects the environment as a whole. For example, a lot of carbon dioxide in the air comes from burning the rainforests. People(obvious) have a need for the resources we gain from cutting trees, we will suffer much more than we will benefit.
Rainforests are often called the world's drug store. More than 25% of the medicines we use today come from plants in rainforests. However, fewer than 1% of rainforest plants have been examined for their (medicine) value. It is extremely likely our best chance to cure diseases (lie) somewhere in the world's shrinking rainforests.
