When I was a little boy, there were no bags in grocery stores. You brought
your own linen bags which grqndma made from discarded garments ...... but
because of the Panamanian rainforest declining there is less run-off of water
to the higher-up lakes whose levels are lowering and ships have been warned to
take smaller loads through the Panama canal or they may not fit over certain
underwater ridges ... The Panama canal closing down due to not enough run-off
water would substantially harm world trade ... The declining rainforst is
worth saving not just for the Panama canal and world trade ... bio-diversity
is pretty important and nowhere else than in the tropical rainforests ...
 
NA> What a bunch of liberal hippie nonsense. All of it.
 
That is a pretty immature statement from someone I consider to be intelligent.
