Hello my dear Steemians,

 

This is the new account “Planetwild” by @stef1 and @myskye. This account is about collecting Steem for the PlanetWild project. That's why I'm going to post once a day. Everything we get together here (Steem, SBD, SP) goes to the project. Then let's see what we can do here...

 

 

Harz National Park.

 

Today we leave the ocean and go to the dying forest in Germany.

The Harz National Park is a protected area located in the Harz mountain range of Germany. It is known for its diverse natural landscapes, including dense forests, rocky cliffs, and pristine lakes. The park is home to a wide variety of wildlife, such as lynx, wild boars, and eagles.

Having a healthy and natural environment is crucial, and trees and forests play a vital role in achieving this. Trees provide oxygen, filter the air by absorbing pollutants, prevent soil erosion, and provide habitat for countless species. Forests act as carbon sinks by absorbing and storing carbon dioxide, helping mitigate climate change.

A dying forest is a troubling sign of the environmental degradation and loss of biodiversity. It highlights the urgent need for action to address deforestation, pollution, and climate change. Without intervention, the dying forest not only poses a threat to wildlife and ecosystems but also affects the overall health and well-being of our planet and future generations.

The Harz is one of the biggest forests in Germany, known for its extensive spruce tree cover and habitat home to an abundance of wild animals, plants and insects that have found refuge from the modern world in the vast protected woodlands of the Harz National Park. Sadly, climate change brought unprecedented heat waves to the area. Following a historic drought in 2018, 80% of tree cover died within three years, turning this once iconic landscape into a deadwood graveyard. .........

I was there in the spring - it's a tragedy! When I was young, I thought the Harz Mountains, especially around the Brocken, were one of the most beautiful areas in Germany. Nature was certainly no longer 100% healthy and intact, but it was robust and capable of regeneration. At the moment I have my doubts...

Thanks for your comment, and yes, it all looks very sad. Honestly... I've pretty much given up trust in humanity. Most people don't really care about protecting the environment, especially not when they have to do something about it personally, or even worse, they have to pay money for it...

Una noble misión, espero que los obejtivos que se proponen los puedan ver cumplidos y las acciones que llevan a cabo ayuden a revivir a este bosque.

Saludos...

Thank you very much for your comment @josegonzalito :-)
