Rainforest

A rainforest is a dense, lush forest found near the Earth's equator, characterized by high rainfall and a warm climate. These ecosystems support a vast diversity of plants, animals, and insects, many of which are not found anywhere else. Rainforests play a crucial role in regulating the planet’s climate by absorbing carbon dioxide and producing oxygen. They also provide essential resources like food, medicine, and raw materials for humans. Covering about 6% of Earth's land surface, rainforests are vital for maintaining global biodiversity and ecological balance.
