Blog #1

Part One:
The wilderness is free
The wilderness lives in me
With animals free to roam around
The wilderness hold all it's furry friends down
It's plants are also special too
The wilderness live in me and lives in you

Part Two:
This article talks about how the Batwa people were moved from there homeland in order for industrial things such  as mining companies and oil companies to move in. This really shows how much we as a world are making industrialization a priority over saving and keeping our natural habitats in their most natural state. It is truly a crime and should be illegal to push people that have lived in a certain area for as long as they have out. The article then goes on and clarifies that this not the first time this has happened and how many natives of other lands have been moved out of the way to make room for big companies. Something needs to be done to stop this madness.

Part Three:
1). The goal of the National Park Service is to protect the natural and cultural resources for the future generations of America.
2). The National Park Service does the most they can to achieve their goal however with things such as fuels from cars and other unintentional harms to the environment, it is hard to achieve it 100%.
3). Some achievements the National Park Service has are improving 17 miles of park trails, 33 protected endangered species, and over 7 million hours of community service. Some of their failures are being rejected after asking to have the Smithsonian to have a national mall and harassing Tourmobile for carrying around passengers.

Part Four:
1). There are tree farms in Atlanta such as Berry Patch Farm and  Coker Tree Farm in Lawrenceville and Gainesville. These tree farms are mainly used as Christmas Tree farms for Christmas trees.
2). If a tree farm is not thinned, the things that grow on the tree may come out smaller than they really should be.
3). Fernbank Forest is an old growth forest in atlanta. Toilet paper and tissue are made from old growth forests.
