Heroes and the Forrest !

Every child, every man aspires to change the world, be Jedi knight, go into wild with Livingstone or travel with Kara ben Nemsi Efendi through the Persia. The truth is that we dream, we live constantly in the state of dreaming and there fore destroy the real world of adventure. We don't care what woods we buy, where and how is our food grown nor how many children did put together our computer or sew together our shoes.

But, don't get me wrong, I AM OPTIMIST :)

Especially, when I see people who really go and do live the adventure. People like Willie Smits who set himself to save the orangutans and put them back in their home - rain forrest.....OOOPS! The only fault being there is almost no rain forrest left in his home - in Borneo ! Why ? Ask our palm oil comsuption (bio diesel, cooking).
So the man didn't stop, instead he did WHAT ?  He does miracles !  He recreates rain forrest ! He creates forrest for his beloved orangutans. And boy, it IS a heck of a rain forrest ! 

Just watch these bellow. 

Couple of key points:

  • Willie Smith claims he has "packages" ready for any climate to re-create rain forrests. Even deserts!
  • He proves it. He did it in Borneo. So no small talk !
  • In his first project he created jobs for more than 6,000 local people where there was prior to this only burned earth !
