10000 trees

What is Our Role?

We could have made a collective decision...it is the 11th hour. But we didnt. Were you holding your breath? The 45,000 activists who turned up in Copenhagen may have been. Here in El Manzano we werent expecting miracles. It is beyond government and big business to make the necessary decisions. They will not limit or stop economic growth at almost all costs. Once again we are reminded that it is the responsability of local people to take the lead. On one hand we have to limit our consumption and reduce our emissions. On the other hand we need to sequester carbon from the atmosphere in soil and trees. When will you start planting your 10,000 trees?
