The Amazon: vast, beautiful, and mysterious. The Amazon River is an artery of Earth’s fresh water system, and lung to its air supply. The world is drawn to her as media, scientists, and environmentalists rail on the exploitation of de-forest/jungle-station. There is another artery and lung of Earth’s life source (water/air), little known, but nestled in the bosom of North America, reaching around the Arctic Circle, making up 29% of the Earth’s forest and is the largest land biome on the planet.
