The threads of balance in the Earth’s intricate ecosystems are becoming unbalanced at an alarming rate. The increase in natural disasters combined with the increasing demands of a growing population has cast a shadow over the sustainability of our planet. At the center of this crisis is the growing gap between the number of trees felled and the number of new trees planted in recent decades.
The Dichotomy: Trees Felled vs. Trees Planted
The dichotomy between the trees felled and the trees planted paints a clear picture of the ecological upheaval we are facing. It is shocking that the area of burnt forests dwarfs the area of newly planted trees – a disturbing realisation with far-reaching consequences. This growing imbalance is putting our planet in a dangerous position where global warming is becoming a serious adversary.
