Prince Charles has done a lot of work on protecting the environment. He has been an environmentalist for a long time. :)
This video shows his dedication to protect the rainforest on Earth.
He urges the world to curb or stop deforestation altogether.
The world really need to see the rainforests as what they are, giant global utilities providing essential service to humanity on a vast scale. Amazon Rainforest helps stores the largest body of fresh water on the planet. Trees in Amazon Rainforest release 20 billion tons of water into the atmosphere everyday. Rain from the forest, waters half of Africa.
A climate scientist once said that if we lost the Amazon, we lost the fight against climate change.
And yet destruction of the Amazon rainforest goes on [according to an article I've read, deforestation of the Amazon is at the rate of 7 football fields a minute!!! 2000 trees are cut down a min]
Much of it was to provide land for cattle grazing and to produce crops to feed the cattles. :( :(
So pls have a heart, stop taking beef.
Save the rainforest for the continual survival of all in the planet.
