| 单词 | rain forest |
| 释义 | rain forest The zone of tropical forests, with high rainfall. The rain forest is of concern to environmentalists because of its role as a source of biodiversity, and as a sink for large volumes of carbon dioxide. There are fears that destruction of rain forests will lead to a rise in atmospheric carbon dioxide and thus to the greenhouse effect and global warming. Destruction of rain forests is also liable to lead to severe erosion, and increased run-off of rain leading to flooding downstream on rivers draining rain forest areas. |
