Why Trees Matter - Carbon Sequestration, Timber and Habitat

Some reasons why I believe humanity is not doing enough to protect, preserve and restore the earth's forests.

Clips and images are my own apart from:

Great video. Trees are a human necessity by nature. This should be taken seriously.

@un1fy003 Thank you, glad you share that view. It's amazing how many folk there are who seem to think we'd get along fine without them.

As a species, we're not very smart. The earth does'nt depend on us, we depend on the earth. Eventually, we will be killed off. Just another unsuccessful species.

@penlovmov I hope you're wrong and that our descendants manage to wake up from the collective stupor and sort the problems out and live happily for as long as the earth is able to support life... I know I'm being unrealistically optimistic though.

However, at no point would I have been as dogmatic as him. I certainly wouldn't have blocked anyone (like he has me), even if there had been such a thing as youtube back then.

Even back then I had a curiosity to find out what was real and LISTENED to opposing viewpoints.

@aqouby I used to be a bit like 77GSlinger, in that I fell for some of the 'alternative/ suppressed' technology stuff and the idea that 'mainstream' science contains a conspiracy to perpetuate it's conclusions. Once I bothered to take a closer look at real science, from the words of the scientists themselves, as opposed to the paranoid 'researchers', I finally realised how important REAL science is.

[finlarg]

@77GSlinger You ARE a coward, because you take advantage of the facility to censor the freedom of speech of those who don't agree with you. Have I blocked you? NO - I'm not so insecure about my world view. The fact you feel the need to erase comments says it all. I've never erased ANY comments. I've got nothing to hide.

[finlarg]

@77GSlinger You can't even get your facts right! You obviously don't know what the scientific method is or how it works.

Have you READ Gaede's comments? I think you'll find that he's the one who dishes out insults to ANYONE who doesn't share his views.

Have you READ his book? Gaede says himself WHEN he began looking into relativity, quantum etc. I'm 36 and was learning about the universe since before he was locked up - BEFORE he began his 'studies'.

@finlarg CERN has destroyed your stupid memorized mind control Psyence. It is over for all you quackademic geeks and your einstein worshipping and the dumbed down zionist psyence of idiots like: feynman, heisenberg, planck, greene, teller, sagan, hawking, michio kookoo. You are a kid and have not even begun to learn how to discern the truth You prefer casting insults at a man who has been studying this material for longer than you have been on this planet. You are slave psyence owned

[aqouby]

@77GSlinger What is your word worth? You believe pseudoscience and science is the same thing.
