    With mock save the environment hypocrite conferences sprouting all over the globe and confusing mankind and all creatures, I am not only selling and freely distributing booklets and posters, but I am also collecting for the purpose of record of our earth’s environmental images so as to show it my Great Grand Children. By chance if they see the images of trees, they might ask, “Great Grand Dad, What are they?” Then I would say,”trees.” Then they would reply, “Trees, What are they Great Grand Dad?” Oh God, please find me an answer.
