In the past, many believed that the Amazon jungle existed in Eldorado, a city covered in gold and precious stones.
Nobody found Eldorado, but it is true that the Amazon has gold, oil and many other riches.
One of them, very important, is biodiversity: no other place has so many plants and so many different wild animals. Not so much fresh water!
If we could pour the planet's rivers, lakes and lakes into five gigantic buckets, one of them would be all filled with just Amazon water!
