In The Heart and Lungs of the World, learn how the Amazon rainforest plays a critical role in regulating the Earth's climate by recycling water from the trees into the atmosphere.

This video is excerpted from BBC’s My World, a program created for teenagers eager to learn more about the important stories shaping our world.
