• History: South America is a large continent with a diverse range of ecosystems and climates, including the Andes Mountains and the Amazon River Basin. The rainforests of the Amazon are hugely valuable to the world, in terms of both their biodiversity and the benefit of trees in producing oxygen. The rainforests are under serious threat due to deforestation – forests are being cut down to make way for development of agriculture and farms, as well as human settlements.
