To whom it might be of concern.
We all know there is a global warming which threatens all of us. I have sent e-mail to United Nations Convention on Climate Change with the following: "
I am concerned as many people are with the continuous degradation and climate change. I propose that you stress not only stopping with further deforestation but arrange that all countries around the world sign to 2-5 percent of adding new forrests in each of the countries, in order to minimalize the damage caused by the massive deforastation so far. Belgium for example must add 5 percent of forests within it's borders, the same Netherlands, Germany, and of course all the other countries. It should be binding in a treaty. Furthermore something should be done that deforastation in Brazil and Central Africa is altogether stopped.
Yours sincerely, Thaddeus Hutyra"

The Amazon
Rainforest and tropical forests of Africa and South Asia which are the
lungs of the entire world are dying on our eyes, due to the ruthless
activities of the human beings, deforestation mainly. It is time now for
all the countries to create a chapter proclaiming the forests so vital for
the world that they must be protected to an absolute nessessity.
In this order mechanisms have to be created which will enable the poor
nations where the rainforests are based and their inhabitants to stay away
from exploiting and deforestation of the forests.
In this order too, the governments of the world should establish funds and
rainforests' tax within their countries which would be supplied to the people
of the countries where the rainforests are based, under a condition that de
exploitation and deforestation stops. This should be an effort of every
single country, under an umbrella of the United Nations. And it should be
an effort many times more generous than the Marschal Plan. Our survival as
humanity depends on it. Time is Now !
This is, naturally, one of the many efforts which the humanity must
undertake, in order to stop the global warming. The European Union is best
equipped to lead and should be joined by the United States, Russia, China,
India, Brazil and all other countries, in a network far beyond Kyoto. Time
is Now, indeed ! /
