A tree's perspective on deforestation

The issue of deforestation needs to be looked at under a more serious light than it has been previously. I have lost a good deal of relatives to the cruel hand of deforestation. Up to this point, I have just turned my trunk to it, hoping that it would just stop. Unfortunately that hasn't been the case. Just recently I lost my twin brother to deforestation. This event along with the other family members I have lost have pushed me to start a movement to advocate the stopping of deforestation. Not only is deforestation killing my family and other innocent families, it rapes the soil of all its nutrients and takes away an important carbon sink, us, the trees. If deforestation continues, our whole species could be driven to extinction, and then where would you humans get your oxygen from? All the trees have come together and want to ask you humans to please help us, help you!
