The story focusses on tropical rainforests under excruciating pressure in north-eastern Madagascar but the problem affects numerous countries across the globe.

God has cared for these trees,
saved them from drought, disease,
avalanches, and a thousand tempests and floods.
But he cannot save them from fools.
John Muir
