I'd like to meet:
Ecoogler is a new Eco Engine for your researches in internet! We use the same tecnology of google but after 10.000 researches we save a tree!All of this thanks at a special partnership with the no-profit organization Aquaverde.com!LET'S PLANT A TREE!
Trees, rain and soil
The humidity and the clouds of the tropical zones are not the fact of the fate. It is the trees which maintain them in this state by releasing through evaporation enormous volumes of water. This vapor condenses by forming clouds, the rain falls, trees grow and their roots retain the shallow layer of ground and the mould of dead leaves where the nourishing elements are quickly recycled by bacteria.
The cycle is broken
Remove trees and rain will stop. Trees and rain are inextricable: no trees without rain and vice versa. Without rain, the ground is going to decay since the bacterian ecosystems which maintain it are exposed to hostile conditions and to erosion, and the forest will be replaced by the wilderness or the desert.
Deforestation
The El Dorado, so desired, suffers from 500 years of waves of destructive colonizations, coming from outside and inside of the country. These last 30 years, the population quadrupled passing from 5 to 20 million inhabitants in this region.
Since the 19th century the Amazonian forest did not stop being exploited: rubber production by the bleeding of heveas, the extraction of gold and of mineral deposits, business of the wood and more recently breeding and intensive soya farming.
Man is destroying the last primary forests still existing. By devastating every year enormous regions of tropical forest, we are depriving the planet of a vital lung, necessary to maintain our climatic balance. We are condemning vast areas to endure loss of fertile soil and grave floods.
We are depriving thousand of local communities from their original habitat in which they lived since milleniums. We are eradicating every day a piece of the worlds most concentrated flora and fauna and we are transforming these forests which are one of this worlds jewels, into a mere souvenir.
Let's be clear: TODAY ARE DESTROYED:
93% of the Mata Atlantica Forest
50% of the Cerado
20% of the Amazon Forest.
At a rate equivalent to 5000 football fields eradicated every day from the map, 20 years from now, what will be left of the great Forest?
