take care of your forrests ,it is the prime value of Brasil to the world
General note on trees
our consumption of water is ever increasing and our drinkable water supply is shrinking because of polution ,and the production of potable water is less all the time because of deforestation.
the forrests make most of the water that we can drink or use for plant growth(sweet water)
some is condensed from the sea but that reaches only the coastel aereas .
the bulk however,comes from the forests who feed the rivers and keep them running all year round,with their excess subteranean water,and from the rainfall which also comes from the trees .the trees condense water from the atmosphere in the night with the surfaces of the leaves,this feeds the rivers after the tree has had enough the excess moves on to subteranean water,
on the other hand in the day water that is brought up by the roots and that is within the foilage evaporate and creates clouds the dust from the leaves seeds the clouds and rain is the results
this process is called precipitation
If we kill all the trees,we kill the rivers .we kill the rain. we kill us.
the trees also absorb the heat in the day and heat up the place in the night ,so they keep the temperature confortable to live in
well with water and so turning vast lands into dessert.
these are some of the reasons why trees are important.
so to counter act these fatal processes we must reforrest and at the same time reduce our carbon emissions.
most governments are aware of these and many first world countries now include programs to reduce their carbon emissions.
the world bank pays large subsidies for farmers to plant trees especially a tree called Pawlomia because it is one of the better ones that capture carbon.
In the sierras in Mexico in Guerrero we are planting Pawlonia to capture carbon and the World bank gives large subsidies for that,
also coffee is the most recomended bush because it lives beneath the trees ,and forrests are created intead of destroyed for agricultural reasons.
En la region Montaña(parte alta) de Guerrero, los productores siembran un arbol llamado Cuajinicuil, este arbol es de muy rápido crecimiento, se clasica dentro de la familia de las leguminosas por lo que es un exelente fijador de nitrogeno. El arbol es utilizado con exelentes resltados para la sombra del café, además su fruto (vaina) es comestible pues sus semillas estan cuviertas de un material fibroso y muy dulce. Sus semillas son utilizadas tambien como alimento para lo cual estas deben pasar por un proceso de cocimiento (hervidas). La cascara de la vaina se utiliza para alimento del ganado. (Es Arbol perene)
so plant a tree every week,and help us save the world

worried about what ? the possibility of a better climate ( in most projections Brazil would have a more stable climate and rising sea levels would have little effect ) it is the hurricane belt that would feel the worst effects some other parts of the globe would benefit from more rain or more stable rain patterns
- ignore the hysteria !
but the reality is that these projections are no more accurate than any weather prediction past a few weeks - 0%
and on an individual level nothing with any effect only things done in the 10,000,000 population and up range would have an actual effect

we cant really stop it. were pretty much screwed.
its because of all the carbon we have put into the atmosphere.
