I think that is so sad... *hug* It makes me so upset to see what people do to nature. Ripping away trees, clearing out meadows and digging into mountains all for the sake of humans and their need for comfort.
Being back home in Hawaii after being gone so long it made me sad to see that so many things have changed. There was this beautiful tree in the old neighborhood I grew up that is no longer there. I drove by to see it missing. I didn't realize until it was gone just how much that tree had given to the neighborhood. It made it beautiful and warm... Now there is just dead grass and dried leaves...
A couple years ago, I stopped at the house I grew up in, the house my grandparents built, for a yard sale. The new owners had cut down most of the trees in the yard and I totally understand how you must feel. *hugs*
I went through much the same with my dog, Caleb, years ago. I'd had to move to a different state, and had plans arranged with my dad to move my dog shortly after. A couple weeks later, I had called, only to find out he had been killed by a cougar, trying to guard what he knew as home. My dad hadn't even thought it was worth calling me.
The same week, the cockatiel I'd helped raise from very nearly an egg got out through a window thoughtlessly left open by my cousin.
Those two were more then 'pets', they were my companions, and at times the only true friends I had. It was five years ago, and I'm still mourning them.
I'm really sorry to hear that. Some people aren't aware of their connection with nature. The only thing we can do is hold on to our belief to show them that we all are connected to each other in a circle, in a hoop that never ends.
