Breathe easier with more trees

Through a process called photosynthesis, leaves pull in carbon dioxide and water and use the energy of the sun to convert this into chemical compounds such as sugars that feed the tree.

The by-product of that chemical reaction produces oxygen, which is released by the tree.

Oxygen, our life source.

Man does not have the answer, but Mother Nature does – plant more trees and plants.

They take in the carbon and put out oxygen.

Hallelujah!

Trees eat the greenhouse gasses, no matter what earth cycle we are going through, apparently today we call it climate change.

The only way to save our planet is to work with Mother Earth.

One large tree can produce a day’s supply of oxygen for up to four people.

Trees and plants are the most C02 absorbing living things on the Earth and world wide man is destroying this very life source at a rate of knots.

Why would we even be thinking to use solar farms, wind farms and lithium batteries all toxic to man and wild life?

We have destroyed our oceans and well on our way to polluting our land.

Have you ever stopped to think how much pollution is discarded into the atmosphere to make the above products?

Think about it, it’s quite frightening.

Our bureaucrats are putting wind farms and solar farms on good agricultural land.

What is their agenda?

And other countries are no longer taking our waste.

Something feels morally wrong to me, shipping our waste to other places on earth.

For the future of mankind we have to look to Mother Earth and work with her, we cannot keep producing waste that cannot be recycled.

Our planet is drowning in waste, man’s greed and immorality is out of control.

The bureaucrats elected to work with and for the people are slowly controlling every conceivable aspect of our lives.

The laws being passed in our parliaments today are against the laws of nature, yet nobody seems to give a damn.

The bureaucrats have us all on a guilt trip.

Where is the love and pride for our country?

The decency, integrity and respect for our fellow man that was the norm when I was a girl?

We can’t look back, we must as one go forward together for a better future.

Is there anyone out there that can see what is happening to my beautiful country or has the establishment got you too frightened to have your own opinion?

I may not agree with you but I defend to the death your right to say it. Isn’t that what democracy should be?
