Dear Editor
The destruction of the world’s forests is leading to vast areas of barren earth. The destruction of trees reduces the amount of vital oxygen needed to combat CO2 gasses and support life everywhere. Excess CO2 in thr atmosphere is now driving climate change.
Everyone should be alarmed by what is being done by private companies, their investors and the financial institutions and governments behind them.
The continued large scale extraction of coal, oil and water to boost the profits of these investors is a crime against every living being who also share this planet.
People must call for an immediate ban on the destruction of the world’s forests as the situation of our climate is now at a critical point. The current rate of extinction and exploitation must be reversed before it is too late.
