The city is not a concrete jungle, it is a human zoo
"The city is not a concrete jungle, it is a human zoo" , This quote by Desmond Morris took my attention and made me think. Forests is the actual freedom, not the cities. We people living in cities bounded to various responsibilities and waste our life for nothing. We really miss the real freedom of life.
When considering the relationship between human feelings and rainforests this quote really supports my idea.
“Finland is officially the world’s happiest country. It is also 75 per cent forest. I believe these facts are related.” Matt Haig source
I'm going to share some inspirational quotes about forests today with you. Let's take a look at them one by one.
“At first, I thought I was fighting to save rubber trees, then I thought I was fighting to save the Amazon rainforest. Now I realize I am fighting for humanity.”
Chico Mendes, Brazilian Environmentalist source
Protecting rainforests is really important. I wish I get an opportunity to visit the largest rainforest, Amazon one day if it is still there till I collect enough funds.
In the 24 hours since this time yesterday, over 200,000 acres of rainforest have been destroyed in our world. Fully 13 million tons of toxic chemicals have been released into our environment. Over 45,000 people have died from starvation, 38,000 of them children. And more than 130 plant and animal species have been driven to extinction by the actions of humans. And all this just since yesterday. Thom Hartmann source
Let's protect rainforests.
Thank you
Hi @stinkbug. I see you're new on Hive, so let me drop you a few suggestions to help you navigate better on our platform.
We have different communities on Hive and we're encouraging users to post in the right community based on the topic of the post. This post for example would fit better in Inspire People or ecoTrain community.
OCD is for topics that don't fit in any other community and should be used when you don't find a niche community for your post.
Here's a guide I put together to help you learn about how communities work and why you should use them -> Communities Explained - Newbie Guide.
Once you posted your post in the right community, you can then cross post it to OCD community. Here's a guide about cross posting.
Please don't delete any post with the purpose of reposting it in another community as that can be considered abuse! Leave this post here, you'll get it right next time.
I think this does not fit into other communities too. Thanks
Dear @stinkbug, we need your help!
The Hivebuzz proposal already got important support from the community. However, it lost its funding a few days ago and only needs a few more HP to get funded again.
May we ask you to support it so our team can continue its work this year?
You can do it on Peakd, ecency,

Your support would be really appreciated.
Thank you!
