The Amazing Amazon
Covering an area of 7,000,000 square kilometres, the 4 What are apprentices?
Amazon Rainforest is the largest rainforest in the world.
It covers parts of Brazil, Peru, Colombia, Suriname, 5 What is Drauzio Varella searching for?
Ecuador, Bolivia and French Guinea. Over half of the
planet’s rainforest is in the mazon. The plants in the 6 Why is his work hard?
rainforest take in carbon dioxide and produce oxygen.
This cleans the atmosphere because carbon dioxide is a
harmful greenhouse gas.

The medical community is very interested in the plants of

the Amazon because different plants can cure illnesses.
For instance, there are plants that can reduce a
temperature and those that can help ease headaches,
toothaches and muscle pains. The Amazon people who
have knowledge of these plants are called ‘medicine men’.
When they get old they pass on their knowledge to
apprentices: younger men who will eventually become
medicine men, too.

One researcher, Drauzio Varella, from Brazil, is looking

for a cure for cancer in the Amazon. The work is difficult
because there are so many different plants in the
rainforest. He and his team test each one to find out if it
has medicinal properties. This takes a long time and it is
very detailed work. Another difficulty that scientists
have is the deforestation of the rainforests. Not only are
the plants and trees impacted by this, but the animals
lose their habitats and have nowhere to live. If people
continue to destroy the rainforest we will certainly lose
our chance to discover valuable new medicines.
