As we drove through what seemed to be lush tropical rainforest everything seemed fine. Dylan and Julia stopped to show us the lie. The logging companies had left a stand of trees next to the road. Beyond that we walked out into a scene of devastation. There were hills denuded of trees. The logging companies had stripped them bare. The wildlife was gone – either killed or banished.
The reason? These old gum trees were felled to sell to China who pulped them for paper!!
Do we really need to destroy wildlife for paper?
NO is the answer. You know how I feel about Trees and you know how I feel about those that cut them down, so sad. That Wildlife, that really makes me shed tears.
I agree – it’s shocking.
Going to reblog.
Reblogged this on Anna Cottage and commented:
The destruction of Trees and Wildlife, when will nature come before money?
Thanks Anna. We need to spread the message.
When will it indeed!
