The natural forests in the Amazon removes more carbon dioxide from the atmosphere than it emits, reducing global warming, according to a recent study.The Amazon's carbon balance is a matter of life and death: living trees take carbon dioxide out of the air as they grow, and dead trees put the greenhouse gas back into the air as they decompose.They found that each year, dead Amazonian trees emit an estimated 1.9 billion tons of carbon to the atmosphere.
Climate of every rainforest is more or less same. In case of Amazon rainforest also, the climate is very humid and hot. For the entire year the temperature stays almost constant and is about 26 degrees Celsius.
