Queensland
You MUST visit the Daintree Rainforest! It's SO AMAZING!

How Old?
Well.... The Daintree Rainforest is 135 million years old. You don't belive it? Well.... you might not want to go there or you could read more for more interesting facts.
How Wide?
Well, read this to find out.
It is the biggest and only Rainforest in Australia. You might not know that it only covers 20% of Australia, Queensland.
Hurting the Environment
Well, now I have to tell you bad news.
- People chop trees down to make timber just to sell it.
- Farmers burn down the trees to make farms but they could do it elsewhere.
- HUGE cyclones, tornadoes and rainfall can damage or even break a "piece" of the rainforest.
- not recycling
I am worried that there will not be any more of the Daintree Rainforest left. ;o ;( ;o ;(
How we can Help
We can persuade people to:
- Plant trees
- not to burn and cut trees down
- put on shows to inform, entertain and persuade people not to hurt the environment
- recycle
