1. The Amazon In Your Home! By George Boyd
Scrolling text repeating until end of slide

2. Did you know, that there are objects in your own
Home that originally came from deep within the
Amazon rain forest!
Shall we take a look at some?

3. Chocolate
Chocolate grows from the Cacao plant which grows wild in the Amazon

4. Medicine
Plants that help fight cancer used around the world, also come from the amazon!

5. Food!
A lot of the food we eat originates from the amazon rainforest, such as avocados, coconuts, grapefruit, bananas, guavas and pineapples to name but a few..

6. Nuts!
Did you know that brazil nuts and cashew nuts started off in a tropical climate such as the amazon?!

7. Coffee
Some amazon people make their money by selling coffee beans to the outside world

8. Shampoo
Lots of ingredients found in shampoo, like the passion fruit, are grown in rainforests too.

9. Spices
No matter what type of food you like, the spices not only taste nice but quite often come from the rain forest

10. Unfortunately, some products are grown in a way that causes harm to the rainforest and the people and animals that live there. You can make sure you’re making a positive impact by choosing products that contain one or more of the following labels:
* Fairtrade
* Organic
* Rainforest Alliance
* Forest Stewardship Council (FSC)
* RSPO (Roundtable on Sustainable Palm Oil)

11. I hope you have enjoyed my project.
