International day of forests

Do you remember the last time you were in a forest, do you remember all the smells, the sounds, the birds and the trees? All these impressions, the slight rattle of the leaves beneath your feet, the distant hammering of a woodpecker or the calming scent of a Pinegrove.
Now visualize the entire experience before your inner eye. Can you see it? Can you relive the experience? Yes? good.
Now Imagine what it would be like if all of that would be taken away, no more leaves falling around you, no more beams of sunlight peeking through the trees, no more birdsong in your ears. It would be terrifying right?
This is the future we are heading into if we don’t start caring more about our forests and starting to protect its complex ecosystem. Day by day more wooded areas get deforested; Day by day more trees die due to pollution and Day by day more forests are being destroyed by Fire.
This is the reason why we celebrate the International Day of Forests. Every year on the 21. of March we are being reminded of the importance and our reliance on our forests, to provide us with food, wood and most importantly fresh air to breathe.
So please get out take a stroll through the forest and help protecting it.
