...they're counting the trees. Members of nearby indigenous communities, with help from the Bolivian green group Friends of Nature Foundation (FAN) and the American nonprofit the Nature Conservancy (TNC), have fanned out across the Noel Kempff's 4.2 million acres (1.7 million ha), which range from Amazon rain forest to dry savanna. In the footsteps of howler monkeys and endangered black jaguars, they follow mapped plots in the forest, drive stakes into the ground and measure out circles with diameters of 13 ft. (4 m) to 46 ft.

The fossil fuel burned to transport the trees from farm to hearth is another matter. But given that most artificial trees are manufactured and shipped from China, fakes have...
...Electric Arguments” by The Fireman marks the third time Paul McCartney has inexplicably decided to team up with 47-year-old musician and record producer Martin Glover, who even more inexplicably has dubbed himself Youth. Even after making their first album, “Strawberry Oceans Ships Forest,” which pretty much consisted of nine remixes of the same song, they still thought it was a good idea to try again. 2.
