In Some Places Money Does Grow on Trees

'Inside T.R.A.I.L' (The Ariel Centre, Totnes)

Newspaper, Book, keyboard keys and fishing wire 175 x 40 x 40 cm

 

This piece is taken from research I did into deforestation, I was particularly appalled to read that in some places (notably Brazil) by simple clearing the forest and placing a few head on the land developers and colonists can gain title to it. http://www.mongabay.com

I also discovered that the net annual loss of forests in 2000 - 2010 is equal to an area the size of Costa Rica. A key Finding from the Global Resources Assessment 2010 http://www.fao.org/news/story/pt/item/40893/icode/en/
