Rainforests as Economic Resources
We discovered previously that rainforests are essential to our life on Earth. They also provide a rich variety of economic resources that are used all over the world. This presents countries with a serious dilemma. Rainforests are used for a number of economic purposes, ranging from agricultural to urban and industrial use. The dilemma facing many rainforest-rich countries, as these economic demands grow, the planet's rain forests are placed under increasing threat of destruction. The economic resources of the world's rainforests are enormous. Here are just some of the more important ones.
Nearly 50 per cent of the world's food supplies originate in rainforest areas. Items that we commonly buy from the supermarket originated in rainforests. Rainforests are becoming increasingly popular places for people to visit because they are seen as areas of wilderness and natural beauty. People take part in activities such as fishing, bush-walking, climbing and four-wheel driving. Local pharmacist sells medicines and drugs that come from plants. Such plants grow in rainforests. For example, medicines which is used for travel sickness, headaches, stomach upsets, skin diseases and leukaemia come from the rainforests. In fact, nearly 40 per cent of all medicines originate from rainforests.
Scientists believe that over 200,000 square kilometres of rainforest are being destroyed each year for economic purposes. Most people would acknowledge the economic importance of the world's rainforests. However, there needs to be a balance between the way we are currently using our rainforests and the future availability of these resources. This is now commonly being referred to as ecologically sustainable development.
To conclude, since the rainforests are very crucial to support many aspects of our life, it is our duty to preserve them.

Interpretation:
All of the mood type involving in the text is declarative, so the text generally purposes to give information/statement.
Based on the mood analysis of the text, writer is considered to be more knowledgeable than the reader. Writer is informing the reader.
