About

The rain forest helps humanity as an indispensable of biodiversity and a regulator of global climate patterns. The rain forest is nearly self-watering. Plants release water into the atmosphere through a process called transpiration. In the tropics, each canopy tree can release about 200 gallons (760 liters) of water each year. The moisture helps create the thick cloud cover that hangs over most rain forests. Even when not raining, these clouds keep the rain forest humid and warm.The plants of the tropical rain forest are also important for the medicines and are also used in foods and cosmetics. The National Cancer Institute estimates that 70 percent of the anti-cancer plants identified so far are from plants that grow in rainforest climates.
