Description

If a tree falls

Some like to ponder

But I like to wonder

If a tree grows

Then why don’t we plant it?


Protecting our forests and planting new trees is our best defense against climate change. Join the fight at www.rainforesttrust.org/

because the tree will get chopped down again plus the trees had to be cut a little because the energy from the sun can burn trees surrounding the area and causing a forest fire and sometimes we had to chop a few trees to make homes for a lot of people that are probably from other countries, some that are probably from poor neighborhoods.

I've been starting and nurturing seedlings and donating them by the dozens to the forest service for re-greening burn areas.Β  If every person on the planet planted at least one tree a year we might be able to begin to catch up to the amount we cut down.Β  Might begin to..., there is so much that is needed.

As a Lion King fan since my very early childhood, I agree with ya. Humanity has become the complete oposite of the circle of life. We take and take and we don't give anything except the profit that comes with it.

This Guy Get's It. Look What Happened When Scar Took Over The Pride Lands And Let The Hyenas Eat As Much As They Wanted: The Pride Lands Because A Wasteland With No Food,No Water And Nowhere To Go (Though This Was Because Scar Would't Allow It). Match That To What HUMANS Do,And You're Looking At Not Just One Wasteland But A Waste PLANET That Faces Far Worse Threats Then Simply Not Enough Food That Could Wind Up Killing Everything On The Planet And Humanity Simply Does't Care That It's Causing It's Own Doom. Like I Said,Humans Are Parasites And Parasites Will Take,Take,Take Until There Is Nothing Left And With No Other Hosts,They Die.

People die every second (I think there's a website proving that) so what's the use when humans die all the time? I understand your argument, but that doesn't make much sense at all. It's just useless bloodshed.

Just be peaceful about things. The artist of this beautiful piece left a link for an organization that's dedicated to saving trees. In case you're on mobile, I'll link it:Β Β www.rainforesttrust.org/

Thanks for listening, have a nice day.

That Only Proves There Are Too Many And That Much More Would Need To Die. I'm Not Really The Peaceful Type: I'm A Rowdy,Spicy,Angry Girl That (If Given My Way) Would See Humanity Wiped Out And Replaced With Something,ANYTHING Better. There Is No Denying What Parasites Humans Are And No Humans Means No Problems Caused By Humans. Ether Way,It's Hopeless And I Can't Cull Humanity (For Now...) Anymore Then Being Peaceful Will Fix Things: Change Only Comes When Forced And There Just Ain't Enough People Who Even Care Enough TO Force It So Everything Will Just Stay The Same,Get Worse And Then Everything On The Planet Will Be Properly Fucked Up Beyond Repair. It's Only A Matter Of Time,At This Point.

I Always Have Thoughts Of Harming Others: Hell,Just Yesterday I Spent A Good While Talking To My Friend About What I'd Do With A Death Note (Spoiler Alert: I'd Use It For A Delightful Mix Of Justice,Revenge And Just For Fun). My Value For Human Life Is Slim To None And Really,Why Should It Be Any Different? Granted,I'm Not A Idiot So I Try To Hold Myself Back As Much As I Can: But I'll Just At Any Chance I Get That Will Let Me Get Away With It (Like When A Bunch Of Hicks Threatened To Come To My House: Everyone Else In The House Was Scared Shitless But I Was Excited...Because Who Could Really Blame Me For Killing People Who Could Have Intended To Kill Me? It's Only Defending Myself,After All. Sadly,They Wimped Out And Never Showed Up Despite All The Tough Talk On The Phone And Text. Punk Ass Bitches). Honestly,I Belong In A Psych Ward But Have JUST Enough Self Control To Keep Me Out Of It (Though I've Had Mental Breakdowns,Before. Though It Was Non-Violent). Welcome To Knowing WAY More About Me Then You Ever Wanted To.XD

The government doesn't have anything to do with it. It's the companies across the world cutting them down (to build houses for people, stores for goods, and space for farms to make food).
