RE: Reforesting the Bald Spots: The Largest Amazon Reforestation Effort, Muvuca, and People Who Plant Trees

Reforestation is good, but rather short term. The first step in right direction is always realizing to myself - "Do I need this piece of furniture"? or something else, made of wood? Tones of pallets and furniture are thrown away, burned in fires. Our consumptionism, and greed are main reasons (on the shallow end of the problem) to deforestation and other eco problems. I always stop and rethink. It is not always possible to get involved in one direction as grouping is limited by many factors - unfortunately...

True and that's a good point. Reforestation is remedial. We don't have any choice but to restore some of what's been lost. But the much more important thing in the long run is to reach some healthy balance so we realize how important nature is to maintain at some level.

It is obvious, that you understand this, but how many people of average population know this logic? :( Let's do our job, and hopefully more and more will get it better, and soon we will need no reforestation on this scale (as the forests will be omnipresent) :) > Thank you for reply to my comment, and upvote to it.
