Global
Impact has taken the initiative to start the Tree Seed Bank, a dedicated cause to
preserve the forests of today for tomorrow. We have started to collect
seed from the Hardwood and semi-hardwood forests of North America in an
effort to regenerate the loss of forests from clear cutting and to
educate the land owners to take the necessary steps to preserve our
natural resources. We hope to extend our cause throughout the world.

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
DEFORESTATION AN AGE OLD PROBLEM
Trees, so powerful, grasping
firmly to earth, resting gently against the wind, stretching up to touch the
sky. Nevermore!
Deforestation is a Problem that has
plagued man for millennium, maybe longer. Although it still is happening today, more in
the tropical rain forest than elsewhere, but overall, its rampant. the importance today
more than ever, is it could have a longer lasting
impact than it had in the past. Overpopulation and limited supplies of natural
resources could completely annihilate all the worlds forests leaving wasteland.
Compare the forests in the future to the poaching of the tiger and rhino for
their highly sought out parts for black market industries . Just like those
forest products will go and go and go to the highest bidder or until its to the
point of no return and the governments have to outlaw cutting of the remaining
forests. Lets get started and make a difference now . Go to our reforestation page
If they knew what we know now, back
before the day of Christ, about the importance of our forests, and their interrelationship
with the entire environment, the cedar forests of Lebanon would still be
standing as beautiful as ever. To imagine those forests, and what they were, and
or could still be like, but what is left? Desert!.
without our forests there
would only be desert.
