Tree Species Are In Danger

We are all well aware of the importance of a tropical forest such as the Amazon rain forest has on world climate. Now, according to new research, a disturbingly high number of tree species are in danger of becoming extinct there. Of the fifteen thousand species found there, as many as two thirds are considered rare and 57% are facing extinction. With 'increased governance' that figure could be reduced to 36%. Perhaps with good governance it could be reduced even further. Do not hold your breath waiting for this to happen. The madness of capitalism will continue until we, the workers, say otherwise.
