The Amazon rainforest is not only an intricate web of biodiversity, but is also home to an estimated 400 billion trees that release 20 billion tons of water into the air every day –
A single large tree can release 1,000 liters of water in 24 hours – enough to fill ten average-sized bathtubs, according to WWF.
Current figures suggest that around 17% of the Amazon rainforest has already been lost – an area the size of France – with the first nine months of 2022 seeing the highest recorded deforestation rates in the Brazilian Amazon since 2016.
As World Environment Day approaches, this puzzle aims to remind us of the importance of every element in our environment, no matter how small.
