At alarming rates, the Earth’s forest cover diminishes by several folds. This dilemma has triggered environmentalists like Janique Goff to become an advocate of re-greening the world’s then-turned “gray and brown” spots.



National Geographic reports that 16 hectares of woodland are lost every year, with majority of them suffering from the cutting down of trees such as cedar, oak, and redwood, which are valued for their industrial importance. Deforested regions are also converted to residential and business areas to accommodate the proliferating number of the human race.

Governments and societies continue to disregard the destruction to the environment that both large-scale and daily practices cause. In a way, these actions (or inactions) are self-destructive, as forests are vital to the survival of the planet.



Janique Goffis well-informed that each piece of paper people use to write on or the thick plywood wall they lean against in the home all came from the woods and are processed through pollution-laden practices, starting from the actual cutting of tress itself to the their merchandising in the marketplace.



Aside from providing obvious benefits, forests are important to humans because they:
• protect the soil from serious erosion
• preserve watersheds through natural regulation of water
• manage the earth’s carbon cycle
• prevent climate change phenomena

These benefits people gain from the forests drive environmental advocates like Goff to pursue protection campaigns, technological breakthroughs, and educated propaganda in order to guard the earth from prolonged manmade devastations.
