<h2>Answer:</h2>

Farmers in South America are not paid to protect rainforests.

<h2>Explanation:</h2>

In developing countries of South America, one of the major causes of deforestation is the need of land for agricultural purposes. The poor economy force people to look after agriculture to meet their needs. Farmers cut down acres of land of trees and burn the stump to release the nutrients.  

Crops harvested are used for food supply and sold in markets to earn some money. The process is repeated since farmers look for nutrients rich land. In the absence of trees, the soil loses nutrients in 3-4 years decreasing crop harvest. Therefore, farmers are forced to look for different farming land which increases the deforestation.

Dima020 [189]

Answer:

The total amount of water on the planet that is present in the <em>atmosphere</em> at any given time is about 0.001% of the total water found on Earth. This atmospheric water is responsible for all storms.

If by in storage we mean in <em>groundwater</em> then the percentage would be 1.69.

Explanation:

The overwhelming majority of all water on our planet resides in the <em>oceans</em>. These hold about 96.5% of the total.

If we only consider freshwater (water with no salt) then the greatest storage areas are <em>ice caps</em>, <em>glaciers</em>, and <em>groundwater aquifers</em>.
