| Who would have thunk it? 20% of the world’s oxygen comes from the Amazon Rainforest. Around ten million artificial trees would absorb 12% of the carbon dioxide humans produce each year 18 People can live off the oxygen produced by 4000 square metres of trees each year. There is a Bristlecone Pine Tree in California which is classed as the world’s oldest individual organism aged at 5067 years! 15% gas and dust between stars makes up a significant amount of the Milky Way’s visible mass. i know, right! Who would have thunk it? |

Yes l was, and now it’s raining hard again and will not stop until 3 or 4 this afternoon. It started at midnight. It makes me look a bit like a headless chicken at times, because there are now so many jobs to do and the time windows just keep getting snaller.
I used to love rain [when l was inside the house] not now.

Excellent quote selection and many quotes from back then make sense. Wonder what happened to common sense because it seems to have gone by the wayside.
