Summary
Before 1788 rainforests made up 1% of the landmass of Australia. At present well over half of that has disappeared, and much of the remainder is threatened. Because many of Australia's watercourses start in rainforests, they play a vital role in water quality and quantity.**Please note that this program/series has been created from masters kindly provided by DECS Tape Services in South Australia.
