Description
If a tree falls
Some like to ponder
But I like to wonder
If a tree grows
Then why donβt we plant it?
Protecting our forests and planting new trees is our best defense against climate change. Join the fight at www.rainforesttrust.org/

Aren't they working kn huge sea weed or sea grass fielda close to the shores ? Those are worth 3 times a forest of the same space!

I heard about machines that suck air, traps CO2 and releases clean air, but know nothing about see weed. This will be interesting to investigate

Love this. It makes me think of how I keep asking some people, "Why not for every one tree we cut down, we plant ten more in its place?" Love the message you have here. ^^

Because it's a resource. And because it's in the human nature to spread and grow more civilization, boy.

1.she is a girl
2. what you call "human nature" sounds like a dumb excuse. Planting a tree has nothing to do with human nature (well, except laziness)

Most forestation projects do replant the trees but the damage is already done. They take a diverse biome filled with hundreds of different trees and plants, mow it all down, and then replant with just Palm trees. The ecology of the forest is effectively broken and the land is turned into a tree farm suitable for only harvesting Palm oil.

Well said! Important to know.
A forester also told me how there are tree diseases which are each spezialized in one tree species. So if you have an x-tree in a forest full of x-trees, the whole x-forest will be infected and dead in no time.
Monotony is destructive more often than not, and this counts for forests too.
The only thing I know where diversity is also destructive is when we're talking about the consequences of globalization.
For example, they brought a dangerous fungus from Asia which spread in our Europen forest, and it kills trees from the inside, with a 1/10 survival rate. It's enough for the fungus to get on a tree's leaf, from there it goes through the branches, into the trunk.
Foresters can't do anything about it but watch trees die from the fungi, or they cut them down to prevent the spreading. But trees die either way, because of a fungus which got here by the hands of humans in the first place.
Also, people from around the world "accidentally" bring new animals which end up roaming around freely and influencing the eco-system negatively as well.

Probably because of greed.Β Forests don't make anybody any money, but housing developments bring cash rolling in for somebody.

I know what you mean. They took down almost all of the forest I grew up in and it still hurts. It grows up but it will take year and years.

Wish it was that easy, everytime we plant one tree, five others get cut down. Only alternative is if they make cardon dioxide abosrbing facilities more common throughout the world l, but who is going to spend on that since everyone likes to live in the present and not worry about the future π

Nice artwork.
Through if you want more trees, just like cows and chickens will never go extinct as long as man is around, find someway for someone to profit off of them. Then he'll plant more trees.
