Here are a few examples of what was done during this time: • Joseph Black (1728 – 1799) studied carbon dioxide (CO2 )• Henry Cavendish (1731 – 1810) produced water by burning hydrogen gas in air.• Joseph Priestley (1733 – 1804) and Karl Wilhelm Scheele (1742 – 1786) identified and purified oxygen (O2 ).

Some of these species are so rare that they are considered endangered, which means they are at risk of becoming extinct. Rainforests are also important for our planet’ s health. They play a crucial role in regulating our climate by absorbing carbon dioxide, a greenhouse gas that contributes to global warming. Rainforests also help to prevent soil erosion and provide clean air and water for people and animals. Unfortunately, rainforests are under threat from deforestation. People are cutting down trees in rainforests to make room for agriculture, livestock grazing and logging. This is harmful to the animals that live there…
