(Before It's News)

by Arjun Walia

As most of the “developed” world is busy working, earning a living, paying bills, and going to school, repeating the same cycle over and over, our eyes have been turned away from atrocities that plague people around the world and the planet itself. The problem is that we feel helpless to change things, so we don’t even bother to try.

So ask yourself, why are we doing this? We cut down millions upon millions of acres of forest every single year. More than 20 percent of the Amazon rainforest is already gone, 150 acres of it is lost every minute. The Amazon alone is vanishing at a rate of approximately 20 square miles a year. Again, the frustrating thing about it is that it doesn’t have to be this way.
