Hey there! Did you know that the Amazon Rainforest is sometimes called the “lungs of the Earth”? 🌍 That’s because it produces a huge amount of the world’s oxygen! In Colombia, more than one-third of the country is covered by this incredible rainforest. Isn’t that amazing? 🌳
Right now, some awesome scientists in Colombia are working super hard to protect all the different plants in the Amazon. They have a special place in Bogotá, the capital city, where they keep over 100,000 samples of plants! 😲 This place is like a giant library, but for plants!
These scientists study the plants to learn all about them and find ways to keep them safe. By doing this, they help keep the rainforest healthy and full of life. 🌿 Without these plants, many animals wouldn’t have homes or food. Plus, the whole planet depends on the rainforest!
Isn’t it cool how science can help save the world? Maybe one day, you could be a scientist who helps protect our amazing planet too! 🧪🌎
