Agent Orange is a forest-clearing herbicide that killed over 400,000 people during the Vietnam War. Almost 40 years later, ranchers in the Amazon region of Brazil are still using the substance to illegally clear out 440 acres of rainforest.
If a tree has been cut down and there aren’t any witnesses, was it really cut down? So goes the thinking behind the group of people tagging Amazon rainforest trees, who wish to stop illegal logging for good.
This illustration—showing the diversity of mechanical species in the rain forest—manages to make all these metal animals beautiful. Too bad that these terrible beasts spend their lives feeding on trees, and destroying everything in their paths. [Thanks David]
