In this Episode Saima talks about AMAZON Deforestation which has hit it's highest rate in a decade. AMAZON being the largest rainforest in the world is also a vital carbon store that slows down the pace of global warming.The rain forests, which contain 90-140 billion metric tons of carbon, help stabilize local and global climate. Deforestation may release significant amounts of this carbon, which could have catastrophic consequences around the world.

This Planet Earth and Environment podcast produced by NAZMA-ENTERTAINMENT (A film production company) is about sharing and discussing about Planet Earth & Environment that includes wide variety of subjects – climate change, wildlife conservation and saving our oceans. I am not a scientist but saving and protecting our planet and the environmental changes are important to me. I strongly believe that we need to keep reminding ourselves things like how the environment around us are impacting the planet that we live in and what can and will be done to save our planet. Some experts say Protecting Our Planet starts with humans.
