the great forests of Old England
the great forests which covered
all of Europe had already been cut down
with saw with axe with sweat an age
of coal coal mining mighty steam was
still to come timber wood was needed
for making glass skill glass making was
exported to America the original colonies
in Europe the biodiversity of the great forests
had already been destroyed vast life destroyed
animal species not decimated but genocide destroyed
chains links in the ecosystem were not just broken
but extinction gone with habitat loss entire species
extinct extinct totally gone from previous habitat
regions
never
to be replaced
reintroduced
extinction gone
genocide destroyed
