"We have already lost nearly 50% of the world's original forests. Each year, we lose 13 million hectares of forests, the equivalent of 36 football fields per minute. Deforestation is the source of 15-20% of global carbon emissions." -WWF
Right now in Ashburn Virginia, a forest rich in wildlife is being torn down on Belmont Ridge Road and Route 7. The animals that live in these woods are forced out into the city which results in them either accidentally being killed by cars or purposely by hunters. Hundreds of deer lay cold in the streets as a result of this. Please help us stop the destruction of more of our forests, and ensure that the animals will be able to live in peace.
