There is a world somewhere between reality and fiction. Although ignored by many, it is very real and so are those living in it. This forum is about the natural world. Here, wild animals will be heard and respected. The forum offers a glimpse into an unknown world as well as a room with a view on the present and the future. Anyone able to speak on behalf of those living in the emerald forest and the deep blue sea is invited to join.

Those who know agree there is a very strong connection between the loss of forests, climate change and the trade in wildlife products on one hand and outbreaks of, often unknown, infectuous diseases (like viruses) on the other hand. There's no question that pollution, the loss of biodiversity, climate change and the outbreaks of diseases are very real threats to humanity. So much so, they need to be addressed at once.  

Interesting and solid information, PC. Good find.
