36 Year In 10 Seconds - The Amazon Rainforest Timelapse

Nature and animals

This video shows a map of an area of the Amazon rainforest from 1984 to 2020. The map shows the rate of deforestation in the area, which has increased dramatically over the past 36 years. In 1984, the area was covered in dense forest. By 2020, the forest had been reduced to a small patch. Deforestation is a major threat to the Amazon rainforest. The rainforest is home to a wide variety of plants and animals, and it plays an important role in the global climate. Deforestation releases carbon dioxide into the atmosphere, which contributes to climate change. This video is a sobering reminder of the need to protect the Amazon rainforest. We must take action to reduce deforestation and protect this vital ecosystem.
