The earth is 197 million square miles of land and water. Water inhabits 140 million miles of it, and land, the other 57 million. Rainforest contain 6% of that land, so that means 3.42 million miles of land are rainforest, but that number goes down by a certain numeral every day, determined by how much countries cut/hour.
The Amazon Rainforest is also known as the Amazon Basin. Amazon constitutes half of the total rainforest of the earth. It occupies the northern part of the South America. It constitutes eight nations, some of which includes Brazil, Peru, Ecuador and other neighbouring nations. It has a total area which extends more than 1.6 million sq miles.
In Brazil, the Amazon covers surface area of 4,100,000 square kilometers (1,583,000 square miles), of which around 3.4 million sq km (1.3 million sq mi) are presently forested. Accounting for parts of the Amazon outside of Brazil, the total extent of the Amazon is estimated at 8,235,430 sq km (3,179,715 sq mi). or comparison, the land area of the United States (including Alaska and Hawaii) is 9,629,091 square kilometers (3,717,811).
In total, the Amazon River drains about 6,915,000 square kilometers (2,722,000 square miles), or roughly 40 percent of South America.
The Amazon Forest covers most of the Amazon Basin of South America. There are 2,700,000 square miles of the Amazon Basin and 2,100,000 square miles of that is the rain forest. Therefore, there are 58,544,640,000,000 square feet in the Amazon Forest.
Approximately 31% of the Earth's total land area is covered by forests, totaling roughly 10 million square miles. This includes both tropical and temperate forests.
As of 2014, there are about 2.4 million square miles of forest on the earth. This includes all kinds of large areas of trees.
