If you should ask yourself why should I care about the fate of these forests thousands of miles away? Because the rain forests helps regulate Earth's climate & provides food, shelter to at least half the world's species of wildlife. The tropical forest are also the world's largest and "Natural" pharmaceutical factory, the sole source of life saving medicines. Our Mother Earth doesn't need us. But we need our Earth which sustains us all, a gift which we can never hope to repay. Feel the vibe.

Maya Lin's work is profoundly moving ... a work of Art ... avoice of truth.

Thank you so much for posting this.

One tree was harmed in the making of this video.

her works of art are so beautiful. it was a shame that people criticized her for the vietnam wall design because of her ethnicity.

I think this might be the saddest thing I've ever seen in my entire life.

i like that. 'together we can save two birds with one tree'

[AquarielCharm]

I cannot watch when I see healthy trees being felled. It feels like a part of my soul disappears with the tree.
