It’s All The Same Thing

Any realistic path to climate stability – so central to creating a world of Peace and Plenty – must inevitably wind its way through our planet’s Rainforests. If rampant Rainforest destruction is not checked, all other climate stabilization efforts will ultimately prove insufficient. Rainforest protection is essential because it was the trees of Earth’s forests that originally sequestered the C02 in the atmosphere, which in turn engendered the lovely climate we have enjoyed until most recently. To sit idly by while these forests are bulldozed to make way for cattle ranching, mineral extraction and fossil fuel exploration is to engage in passive ecological suicide!

Facing The Facts

Myth #1 “Rainforest deforestation is finally slowing down, as more and more areas are coming under strict environmental protections.”

Fact  #1 Amazon acreage continues to be bulldozed, burned, mined and mismanaged  at steadily increasing rates.

Myth #2 “Mineral extraction and timber harvesting is restricted to areas that will not disrupt indigenous inhabitants of the Rainforest.”

Fact  #2 Irresponsible mining, oil extraction and lumber harvesting is destroying both wildlife habitat and the tribal life of previously uncontacted cultures.

Myth #3 “Sad to say, but there is certainly nothing you and I – or the people who live in the forest – can do about this mess.”

Fact  #3 Activists in the industrialized world are forming alliances with Tribal Communities to demand and co-create a sustainable future for the Amazon.
