[00:00:00]The reason we are alive is because of a piece of dust in Africa. This is a true story no one knows. Every year dust flies [music] from the Sahara desert all the way across the ocean to the Amazon rainforest. [music] This dust is 27 million tons and it's full of phosphorus. [music] This phosphorus is the perfect food for Amazon trees. It lands on the Amazon trees and keeps them alive. [music] And when the Amazon is alive, it produces oxygen. 20% of the world's oxygen comes from the Amazon and that oxygen keeps us alive.
