The
Amazon Rainforest is rich in natural resources! π
People use its wood for furniture, and some plants are used for medicines. For instance, the bark of the cinchona tree was used to create quinine, helpful in treating malaria. πΏ
Many fruits, like aΓ§aΓ and Brazil nuts, come from this area, and they are important for local economies. π°
Some communities rely on sustainable harvesting, which means they use the forest without harming it, like collecting nuts or fruits without cutting down trees. This balance helps support people and protect nature!
