Description
Summary: | Within the heart of this famed, bustling city is a tranquil oasis. It is the Rio De Janeiro botanical garden. It is also a vital link to brazil's most threatened ecosystem, the Atlantic rainforest. For over 500 years the rainforest has been eroded, largely for sugarcane and coffee. Now, a total of only around 7% remains in scattered fragments. Yet within this area is the greatest diversity of plant and animal species on our planet.
