The Amazon

The Amazon The Amazon rainforest cries and the mighty river senses the doom. The inhabitants of the forest are beleaguered in fear of losing out the logging, the clearing of land, estates for cattle, future hamburger meat. Those who try to help the people of amazon are murdered not by the rich but by the deluded poor who fear for their livelihood. A tragedy is enfolding the world watches helplessly, wring hands and write learned articles about the plight of the Jungle people. If the rainforest dies, the river will die as well A new desert where nothing grows except scorpions and snakes and the nature will suffer the people who lived there will be extinct, in the name of democracy where everything is legal if you are mighty; in the end, the globe will die.

I hope that it will stop, and there a organization to encourage people to keep the ecosystem alive and well. I am sure someone will think of something. I am glad that you wrote this political work to keep the problem front and center. Sara
