    This is nothing. You should see the log that are shipped off to Europe and China everyday. Huge logs. What they are showing here of villagers making charcoal is nothing compared to the thousands of giant logs I have seen been shipped off from Congo Brazzaville and Gabon in the past two years. Legal and illegal logging should all stop. There is no way we can replace this ancient trees. Not sure anyone has the seedlings anyway. The world cried over the Amazon, the same should be done about this African great forest.

      It is not wrong and neither is it right to log forests, but it is appropriate that we plant back trees and other forms of plants after cutting them. Trees are God given natural materials for us humans to use. They are really a blessing that we should take care of and manage properly.
      And yes, we should start planting more plants world wide to also help wild life to remain preserved.

      Deep Mate No, stay the fuck away, the correct people know nature, there are no mysteries to them so they don’t have to find anything. As you said “mankind” (a kind of man) knows nothing of nature, they don’t hear or or feel it so how could they ever know it? The only way they can get to know it is by dissecting it, hurting it, destroying it. “Man Kind” stay the FUCK away!

      Their life expectancy was very low, thus they had limited people feeding on abundant resources, now because their life expectancy is increasing, the populations are exploding, thus abundant people are competing for limited resources, thus clearing forests and killing more animals. If you eradicate polio, malaria, small pox and other high morality diseases and provide access to scientific medicine, infant mortality is bound to shrink, thus increasing populations exponentially, which is the case with africa, their populations are doubling in decades.
      Now give some massage to your highly functional primate brain, and stop being a rascist.

      The problem with these rain forests is it is populated by very poor people who depend upon the forest resources for their life sustenance So naturally it will have its effects on the environment and thus contribute to global warming etc. United Nations should think of finding alternate source of income to sustain the lives of these forest dwellers if the world wants to save these natural lungs of this globe
