Clicked at the Great Smoky Mountains, TN, USA. One of the bugs specifically attacks one species of trees, and the effect is before us.

Long time no see dude!
Nice documentation, i like it! All our forests go down the bin, a sad story through and through. In brasil they cut them down to plant soy, for our stupid "biofuel", and elswhere (e.g. in germany) trees are under pressure from global warming, which makes them vulnerable to parasites.
What favours the spread of that bug? Germans have made a monumental mistake by planting fast-growing pines as large monocultures in low-altitude areas. The warmth leads to massive infestation by bugs that eventually kill the trees. |
