why is the rainforest called the lungs of the planet
In my opinion its called the lungs of the planet as most of the oxygen we breathe comes from trees and the rainforest. We probably wont be alive if there were no tree and rainforests
there is alot of trees there and trees produce a lot of oxygen.
