Tree Ratio for Food Security, Export, and Climate Change

Tree Ratio for Food Security, Export, and Climate Change

Human Evolution on knowledge increasingly reveals the importance of trees, but human efforts on multiplying enough edible trees seem lacking in all or most countries. This article aims to help humankind 'repent and amend' in regards to efforts on edible trees. The term 'ratio' has been used on many things, but I doubt if any country tried to know its edible trees ratio to its population, then set which targets and use which cultural tactics and laws to attain and maintain a decent Edible Tree Ratio (ETR)? It is best to get all governments involved in the very beginning, but every sane person understands it is hard to convince average governments on any good, let alone all governments. The good news is we have a feasible individual approach, private sponsoring approach, and of course governmental approach. The other good news is we hope God finally acts to get the government on board asap, but thankful that a big percentage of the plan can be realized without much government involvement. How many types of trees have you consumed or utilized beyond food and how many Edible trees have you planted or sponsored? Perhaps a more vital question: Are you ready to pledge to plant or sponsor at least twelve Edible Trees in the spirit of the title?

Although the vision is worldwide, I may have to lean my focus on Africa for different reasons not worthy of mentioning. Africa is the birthplace of humankind, according to the best scientific knowledge known to humankind. Arguably, Africa is still the most blessed continent in respect to sweet nature. Africa is not only the 'poorest', but arguably the one that is guilty more than the average human knows, and needs repentance like or more than other continents? A big chunk of the domesticated edible trees in Africa were partly thanks to the colonial masters and of course human efforts can be credited for the multiplication of such. However, over 90% of the Edible Trees in the bush in Africa or my part of Africa cannot be credited to human efforts. Instead, humankind or Africans were/are largely cutting these Edible trees to make room for homes and largely farms. This is the understandable 'sin' we should not debate or waste much time on, but are we ready to 'repent and amend' after sure knowledge and a feasible plan reaches us? Regardless if the edible trees we cut in Africa alone is hundreds of millions, one billion or much more in Africa alone, we know that escalating that direction cannot lead to any good. My repentance plan for Africa is calling for at least twelve billion Edible trees and about ninety-six billion Edible trees for the world. The numbers may seem big, but even Africa alone can have over hundred billion edible trees within two years, or we should seriously debate the impact of rising human population and dwindling number of edible trees. We cannot claim the earth or Africa can have over 50 billion people in which year, but having over hundred billion trees seems infeasible to the blind or the unwilling?

My feasible plan revolves around the culture of single to triple row Edible Tree fencing of farms as a start, but also re-designing cities in the spirit of the title. Sometimes a micro example helps. I happen to live in the Gambia, the smallest country on mainland Africa and a population of about three million people. Our maths says the Gambia should plant at least thirty six million edible trees within one to two years. Optimisation demands diversifying these trees. So, every country should list its edible bush trees, including shrubs, in a table of twelve for easy primary assignments. This means if Tamarind and velvet tamarind are listed under number six, the June (six) born adult will have a minimum of the mentioned to achieve good diversification. Suppose the Gambia, Africa, or the world says 'three of each' , you have to fulfill that within your verifiable twelve or xyz, but you can have many other trees of your choice. Singapore may not have enough land for such, but they can sponsor in Africa, Asia, and beyond. I believe God is pro-planning of good. Every good plan has to originate from God or ascend to him by when? I mean do not let mistaken religious folks forbid you from any good planning or good things; and the worst of people may reject good suggestions through humans in arrogance or desire worshipping. A June born who does not like bitter Tamarind may have a child or grandchild who may love it. Also, how do we introduce the sweet tamarind variety as an option? A new health discovery may boost its value, for the money leaning folks. A non edible discovery can also boost the value. Respecting reasonable orders is good, but if you are blind to the wisdom, then the blind authorities may not see the need, design it, or call for it.

Seedlings: Such a massive number of trees require mass participation even at seedlings preparation level. Thankfully human knowledge is growing and our main barrier is refusing to share needed knowledge and lack of good regulation around knowledge. We can certainly try local made 'rooting hormones' , but I think researching around ten trusted commercial 'rooting hormone' brands can help. Bulk buy or how many factories can we replicate through reasonable arrangements? Your brand being chosen is a great opportunity, but research may reveal it works great on 25% to 50% of Gambian or xyz bush trees, good on the rest; then a different brand may work much better on another 25% of Gambian trees. You can guess what I am saying for authorities to consider before bulk buying or signing a major deal.

Again, using the Gambia as our micro-example. A country of about three million people is less likely to have more than one million compounds (homes) or farms, except if external tree sponsors are factored in by when? Do we need one to three million gallons of 'rooting hormones' for tiny Gambia? Again, I am not opposed to 'locally made rooting hormones' but they should be well tested under cameras before the government or an NGO recommends it. Similarly, on any commercial brand we may publicly deal with.

Although we do have 'Agricultural agents' in the districts (counties), in even poor Gambia, I believe in teaching under cameras. We can sell, loan, or xyz the 'rooting hormones' ; teach them under cameras; etc. If 75 to 95% of the farmers successfully do it, then the agricultural agent can help those who need further help at a reasonable rate. Presently, the cost of average seedlings in the Gambia can range from D100 ($1.25) to up to D600 ($9). We cannot charge such rates to poor farmers. So a reasonable rate for a gallon of 'rooting hormone' for the farmer to make dozens of trees is preferred. Since almost every Gambian compound now has at least one literate person, then a detailed video will help. Follow the instructions or failing may come at a cost and what type of shame? An agent driving or riding towards your farm must be paid; or buying hundreds of seedlinģs, plus transportation cost, and losing time. Suppose Velvet Tamarind is not available or is limited in Jokadu District of the Gambia, then I am hinting how the government or an NGO must consider helping.

Good trimming at what stage will contribute to perfect looking trees and boost the number of fruits per tree. So let the educational videos be very detailed, including the purpose.

Timing: I think the first week of the raining season is the best, so is it late for the Gambia this year? Not really. You do not have to wait for the slow governments or xyz. You can try your local made 'rooting hormones', you can order through Gambians in the diaspora or agricultural stores, etc to spearhead your own research with near zero risk. Some other countries are expecting rain in two months time and should start research and work now. How much time do you need to dig 12, 100, or 200 holes of which depth for which types of trees? Again, optimisation or perfection is one thing, but relative success is still probable through reasonable guessing and adjusting. If you start too late into the raining season, then the roots may not be very strong, and you may need a borehole or transport water for how many trees of your choice for weeks or months?

Erasing fears: You may need to erase fears like 'it may not grow here'. You explain to them how the PH of the soil can be changed and checked how often? Depending on available funds, I think every farmer should own PH testers... By simply recommending it, at least twenty five percent may buy and share. Considering the ungrateful may abuse usage, or even steal it by refusing to return it with lies; potential fights and court cases hint it may be cheaper to find ways of each owning one through bulk buy or having our factories. Your Agricultural agent can also be renting it under cameras. They may have other fears not worthy of discussing here, but worthy of addressing at government level. If ten farmers raised an issue in district A in the Gambia, it is likely that such fears exist in district B in the Gambia, Nigeria, and beyond.

Selling the ideas: The primary motive is making fruits much more affordable and widely available. I once wrote how my low level millionaire brother once had a naming ceremony, he was able to offer meat to both the rich and poor guests, but the fruits were limited to his elite friends and what type of close family members? The lesson is fruits are increasingly just for the richest in the Gambia and how many countries? Jarga and how many good people are ready to change this sad reality? When can we have 'fruits in abundance' even for the poor, not just pray for it and refuse simple efforts towards achievements for ourselves, our children, and others. My point is if there were zero financial incentives, Africa+ should repent with efforts towards putting smiles on our children. You can argue they do smile or you do employ efforts, but can they smile much more ? Are you employing enough efforts or can you raise your efforts by how much? What I am asking is reasonable efforts and what percentage of humans may accept before you reluctantly accept?

The ignorant or worst of people may resist with fractional facts or even with lies. The reality remains 'bush fruits' are increasingly limited even in the countryside (provinces) in the Gambia and many countries that claim to have them. How many months can you eat velvet tamarind (solom solom) in the Gambia or xyz countryside? One to three months and mainly for the children and money seeking folks. A big chunk of the adults are kicked out of the blessing or may consume under one kilogram of it in a whole year, regardless of where you live. They do not know or are blinded of the benefits until when? We can change that reality at least for the willing. By adding at least one million velvet tamarind trees, we can switch from under one kilogram to having a 50 kilogram bag for even a single adult. We should try to live in much better ways than our parents and grandparents, including having better food stores with shelves and well packaged food. Our generation should set the new higher standards, but it must start with much higher production. Our tourists mainly come in the winter, but Velvet Tamarind and how many great plants are only available in other seasons? Only when production goes significantly higher can bulk buy and year round storage be easier. I live in the suburbs and I have to drive for almost thirty minutes to buy velvet tamarind and many fruits ... So , very few places offer them for sale and for one to three months. We can change all of that, but the poor farmers must be willing to work for the poor working African, be they teachers, police, plumbers, carpenters etc, but can such also sponsor or motivate the poor farmers? Well, that paragraph may come later.

Export: The title mentioned export to attract money leaning folks. It is indeed a secondary target and very probable. The lazy mind or lazy body African+ may claim twelve trees per person is too much. We cannot wait until high demand starts to start production. Our mindset should be that we need to directly consume about 25%, but how much do our birds and other animals deserve? How much do we want to export? Some say Angels should plant more than hundred plants for them , but they refuse to plant even twelve edible plants for themselves and potential export for food or which other research and new products? If our generation of Africa leaves all research to children of other races, then the moral debt and complaints continue. If 25% of us are willing to research on plants beyond food, then affordability matters, because only ten percent may succeed by when? I mean what we need for African research versus western or xyz research per plant? Only by significantly raising production can we consider export or we are further starving the poor in brutal capitalism. So God chooses Jarga, the founder of Lovism, to help even some of the capitalists? Well, God will decide how much we can export, but I prefer barter and a different more transparent form of setting prices for products in international trade. We should seriously consider a reasonable export tax, especially against farmers or industries that refuse to sell 10 to 25% of their products in the country. Arguing around 'foreign currency' benefits is one-eye illusions and must end asap.

The value of shrubs versus trees cannot be the same. However, if a ton of tamarind is in a given range due to varying qualities, then which continents or countries will offer the best versus worst due to varying mindsets, lack of standards, poor leadership, lack of cameras, etc. If the adults refuse to work or poorly train kids under no cameras, then the ugly looking tamarind in a nasty bag cannot be priced the same as the good looking tamarind in a well packaged bag or box. So even if we have to barter, standards matter. So, when I claimed I want cameras in even African farms, it is not just to catch the stealing child whose parents refuse to even plant trees and refuse which tactics to pressure them to be responsible parents? It is not just to use cameras and drive away animals where need be and many other goods. I also want to improve character and set new standards. With the Gambia having a strong culture of cameras, we can improve the character of workers, barter with only countries that are ready for high standards, and have higher probabilities to export with good rates. Are you ready to set aside 'ugly' or suspicious looking fruits for fertilizer than animals? Although I also called for worldwide culture of cameras, guilty countries may resist with excuses or come late.

My one ton of high quality velvet Tamarind should barter or sell close to Pomegranate from Spain, blueberries from the u.s or xyz, unless you can argue in better ways than those who claim female's ‘booky’ is more valuable than male's ‘peny’ to justify not just dowry, but ever increasing dowry until when? Until recently, machines played a limited role in the number of trees you can plant or harvest in a ten hectare land. Tree planting is more about determination then and now, but you can sell and buy excuses to justify inaction or under reaction. From the farmers to the governments, here is another opportunity that is offered to all, but who will accept by when or offer excuses until when?

Spain is reportedly the number one by far on Olive production, but do they have the best soil or temperature for it? They are producing an estimated 5 to 8 million tons of Olive? How many tree plants is SeneGambia producing about ten million tons today versus if we accept my divinely inspired plan? India is reportedly producing the most Pomegranate in the world and mostly from one state, so which state in Nigeria, SeneGambia , or xyz can outperform them in production or pomegranate tree ratio per person?

My point is feel free to sell the probability of export, barter, and many other possibilities, but honestly tell them the international world is closer to merit based, despite its faults. If we do not produce high quality velvet tamarinds, then we cannot barter them with high quality goji berries of China or xyz. If we produce high quality ones, pack them well, but send a bad negotiator, s/he will buy excuses with or without bribe, sell us excuses with fractional facts, and you may condemn my type for speaking the truth. Good parents matter, good leaders up to government level matter. If your parents refused efforts at personal or mass level, you try to be the new African in the spirit of 'exhort each other to truth...' as per ch. 103. Packing yours with cleanliness and under verifiable camera may help you to some degree, but unless the Gambia or all of Africa scores over 95%, then prejudice and the guilty media may hunt you in ways that will be hard to defend.

Climate change: The purpose of these mass repentance is not limited to food and money. Never in the history of humankind did we see an attempt to plant billions of edible trees within one to two years. Africa alone, we are looking at over twelve billions of trees with a vivid feasible plan. Air quality will improve by one to five or xyz percent is almost an irrelevant debate. The undeniable aspect is it will likely help. I understand many Africans like to argue Africa did not contribute to the problem, why should we pay the cost? First, as parents of the world, it is very hard to distance ourselves from the choices of our children of other races. Secondly, we are indeed consumers of virtually all the products that contribute to climate change. Crude Oil producing countries cannot shoulder all the blame if we consume oil or pray to discover oil. I can list many links of our connection to the problem, but I am more interested in how each may willingly be part of the solution. I have no problem in you seeking funding from those you consider the main culprits, but please do not wait for them for more than weeks. Rich Westerners like Bill Gates promised to give away billions of dollars before he dies. He seemingly believes in curative health and semi-preventive things like vaccines, so you may argue how these plants may prevent illnesses and help cure at times more than climate change to convince him. I have actually heard Bill Gates argue against trees as the solution, but my understanding is he is claiming we will need more than trees. In a nutshell, he does agree that trees can help. So is he willing to give at least ten percent of his wealth to this cause that will certainly help or gamble all with AI with his rich buddies?

Similarly, countless Arabs or Muslim billionaires and other rich folks believe in prayers or saying certain words will make Allah force an Angel or Jarga to plant a tree in heaven for you. Well, this is a test for you. If you are rich and indifferent to the poor humans, a seeing God cannot have only ears and be revealing such as a test for humankind. Some of you raised oil prices against the poor and committed other sins. So plant what you can in your respective countries, but consider helping beyond your race, religion, region, etc.

I remember and listen to God while writing this piece. You can remember God while planting up to harvesting time. When we realize twelve to thirty six varieties of fruits, on a daily basis, we will likely be thanking God, at least while eating and having better health. So let true remembrance of God/Allah be known by how much the rich help the poor on such vital initiatives, and the poor remember God through efforts as mentioned in different places.

Extreme heat is among the rumoured effects of climate change. As a matter of fact, there is a deadly heat wave going on in Europe and North America more than Africa. In the middle east, heat seems to kill immigrant workers more than the rich natives. It is reported that heat kills over 500 people , every year, in New York alone. Again, the news may claim mainly the sick or elderly, but reality reveals poor workers do suffer or even die as per the executive order of the New York Mayor. To others, you may run to Africa. To Africans, more deadly heat may visit you. So more trees can indeed mitigate the effects of climate change. The Paris Accord promised you and yet to deliver, or how will you spend it to reach the poorest in Africa, South America, etc? Again, let us do it with or without them. The shade, the air quality, the water absorbing help, etc are all imaginable help from the Lord of knowledge and nature.

Green Cities: We can learn from the mistakes of the past or repeat them. Although all old cities lack enough planning on enough trees, few western cities are seemingly repenting and Vancouver is one good example. It saddens me why Africa is slow to learn. Did your questionable Paris Accord at least recommend better city planning in all countries? Is the UN of much good in this respect? We should clearly stipulate after 3 to 5 kilometers of man made buildings, we must have one to three kilometers of trees. Trees in compounds or in the street walks will not be enough, we need food forests or dedicated parks of trees around trees (mini forests) . Some countries are urging or even mandating compounds to have trees on about 25% of their allocated land. I do not consider that the best approach. Governments should dedicate special areas and enough areas to trees, even in cities. Private compounds can resist and you cannot jail everyone. Also people with glass houses have every reason to not want trees anywhere near their properties. The anticipated stronger winds may uproot a tree and slam it up to how many meters ? You may not be able to control your neighbor having trees, but you can wish and urge for laws or regulations to mitigate certain problems.

National versus International Sponsoring of Trees: I think both should be verifiable and documented on the internet, or at least an NGO or government record level for history+. Jarga, John, or Mary sponsored a baobab tree or 12 trees in Jokadu district with xyz coordinates will reduce potential corruption and ascertain more Edible trees are planted. If John is a poor teacher or police officer in the Gambia, we are still demanding the equivalent of a labourer's daily wage per tree. Presently, a construction laborer earns about D500 ($7) in the Gambia, so you do the maths for twelve trees or what you want to sponsor. Meaning, sacrificing to work on the weekends as a laborer, work during your holidays, or which other ways is your plan? Will you pledge 12 D500 or xyz monthly deductions from your salary? You can complain or give excuses, but if you truly remember repentance, affordability, better health, export for salary raising, etc then God can be a witness compared to your counterparts, and governments can enact pressure points to pressure the ungrateful, the unwilling.

Are you a Gambian, Nigerian, Ghananian, or xyz in the richer diaspora? We are recommending hundred or xyz dollars per twelve trees. So will you send a thousand dollars or only ten dollars will be on record for man and God. There is a huge difference between choice and resort choice, because your so-called remittance to your loved ones may not weigh as much as you like to argue. You are eating and may eat or benefit in many ways from the trees we are planning for new Africa and every willing place. Your daily wage or weekly wage/second job is not too much to ask. The poor Gambian teacher+ is contributing, your loving white+ co-workers may contribute, so will you contribute more than complain? Some of you may not even share the message unless your favorite party is governing? No! I know some of you will gladly contribute, but activists are obligated to address all parties.

Similarly, if we cannot get world governments to get on board on time, contribute, and urge you to contribute with tax deduction incentives, then how can we use social media and which ways for funding? Again, we may recommend $100 from the citizens of richer countries , but you can donate a thousand or ten dollars for reasons best known to you. Some can donate millions or billions. Beside the income gap, your donations demand government or NGO involvement, which comes with cost. We will have to record, verify, and set-up an office for you or your types. The Gambian sponsors in the Gambia are limited and can travel to verify if need be. However, the fast food worker in the u.s , donating their hard earned money demands effort and ascertaining no one misuses the money.

Primary and Secondary helps: I already said the rooting hormone is the main primary cost to this initiative, but every country may differently choose which secondary helps they can afford. I will argue a three wheeler electric bike with a carriage should replace donkey or horse carts. The farmers may need to carry water to water the trees that are not yet very strong after the raining season ends. Only the farmers who fulfill their mandates on the trees, including their children will qualify for international or government support like such. Be it loan or free grant, a clear agreement will be helpful or who said poor people cannot be corrupt or may deserve hell? The farmer who is not willing to plant even for his children is not worthy of helping in my book. Beside water, such will help transport the fruits, so I highly recommend all countries to help the right farmers to own such. The wheels must be designed differently for different terrains and have good recharging methods, including an alternator. Manual peddling when empty is good.

I have briefly mentioned things like PH testers. The government, NGO , and farmers must invest in stationary and body cameras. Even if fifty percent willingly participate, the chances of theft for food or reselling will greatly diminish. Considering even one percent may refuse to plant and may want to steal means we need evidence gathering tools like cameras. Every district should have how many government drones with cameras? Every farm needs multiple real 360 degree cameras. You may need to search: 'real versus false 360 degree cameras' by Jarga kebba Gigo for more info. Lastly, all farmers should have body cameras but avoid attacking thieves; you can talk, but not attack. Body cameras are much better than empty claims in courts and trying to record with your phone can mean trouble, or the thief attacking you. So imagine the government or NGO drone recording or missing which thief; your farm or good neighbouring farm recording or missing; then your body cameras. We must value cameras more than more wives and endless children who may have to beg for a visa or risk their lives towards Europe, the Americas, middle east, etc.

Reserving more mini forests even around farms for the animals matter. By planting some of the same trees in such areas for animals is about the only conscientious way to use drones to drive away animals and birds from our farms. These are highly testing times for humankind. We recorded certain crimes between blacks in Africa and blacks against animals. We recorded some Arabs and Whites enslaving some blacks. Then the Quhr-aahn claimed in ch.55:10 ' And The earth we set up for creatures with spirits ...'. Decades later, science confirms the importance of biodiversity. From climate change, visiting aliens, or AI taking over; those indifferent to animals cannot deserve much from God and the angels if a more powerful species thinks only their species or sub-species (race, tribe, questionable religion , etc) matter. By allocating space for animals, we show care. Will the government agents or farmers do such planting+? Cost and care may determine that.

A special compost tea manual making equipment will help. From the leaves and potentially spoiled fruits should be used as fertilizer. So the farmers who go far beyond the twelve as minimum for each are planting fertilizer+. I can list other things that may help, but time and space are limited. Now you can understand why I recommend higher donation amounts from some. Even if we have to loan such to farmers, we need initial capital that some governments may not have.

Tourism and Globalism with Capitalism: may those who donate become much richer to become tourists who enjoy much better than prior tourists, beyond fruits and juice offerings . The reality of globalism can be studied in the Gambia with cashew nuts. Although the number of cashew trees we have is about ten fold compared to when I was a teenager in the Gambia, cashew nuts are no longer affordable to the poor Gambians. The high demand from the west, China, India, etc means less nuts for Gambians, malnutrition, then more sicknesses, more spending on expensive medicines from the mentioned places, and a brutal cycle you can imagine. Education or sensitizing the public is one option I will always prefer, but I am open to hard pressures like harsh ads and even penalising laws. Imagine an ad: Worse parents may not plant trees for their kids, but bad parents plant for money more than for food and health. The western kid eats cashew nuts year round because you over-sell and did not reserve for your children? You can imagine the rest...

I am even open to using drones nationally and internationally to limit selling in positive ways. At least ten to twenty five percent of the cashew nuts or xyz we produce must remain in the Gambia or your country, depending on factors a board can determine. The Jokadu district drone can estimate how much cashew nuts, velvet tamarind, etc Jarga has and set a reasonable limit to how much Jarga can sell. A measurable law means my nephew or niece can report me, but too harsh a law means family or xyz protection, corruption, etc. The ads will awaken some towards better private storages and mass storage of food should emerge before potential research and post production factories are built in Africa.

Another potential excuse worth discussing is that some farmers may claim 'we do not have enough space...'. Fencing your farm with trees will not take much and those trees may bring you much more. Underneath those trees you can plant other plants that do not require much sunlight. Aloe vera is one example, but you can try other vegetables+, not just so-called cash crops. Your Agricultural ministry or agent should list at least ten plants you can successfully plant under such trees. The honest reality is vertical farming+ will likely take away certain gardening and farming jobs before AI takes over many jobs. Smart farmers should switch to trees and heavily invest on education up to research. Some of you are blind about the future while some fear even relatively safe new ventures. We must plan for the future or will forward excuses and cry if harder tests come.

Post First Phase: As we shoot for verifiable Edible Tree Ratio (ETR) of at least 12:1, all countries must now add it to the new needed census. New babies must get their trees sponsored based on the laborer's daily wage of each country or reasonable measures be taken, including up to imprisonment. If you want to cut a tree due to diseases or xyz, you must record and forward it with a permission request. The same kind of tree or what your laws allow will be replaced by you or the government through a fee. We should handle the earth as if we are to re-incarnate as the same species, higher , or lower. If we do super well to deserve a better planet, we should still try to handover the earth with better tree+ culture we found. The Gambia, Nigeria, and how many countries are claiming about 70% of their population are farmers? It means about 70% of one billion people have to plant for the youngest baby or measures be taken. We have the numbers to plant billions of trees with relative ease. We need determination more than money on such a group. Comply on the minimum or face a new land tax... Then we smartly educate the about 30% and use different measures against any defiant one. Depending on income, number of kids, etc, we can work out certain arrangements with some parents. You can also directly work with your relatives in the provinces, but you must provide details and pay verification processing fees where need be. Having the targeted number of trees in just ways is what matters to us.

Every year or xyz years, we can name a new tree or few trees from the same continent or different continent as tree(s) of the year or period, in the case of wanting to add special trees for the new borns as primary task minimums and parents to decide the rest of their twelve quota.

Do not let any national or international d[oer of]evil derail you with so-called human rights or other fear tactics. Remember human responsibilities are above so-called rights to hijack land and refuse to plant even trees for your children? They jail people for not paying child support to sometimes questionable women and force young men to fight questionable wars. If they claim that many trees can be dangerous, tell them we likely had that many trees before and we will need it if we do not limit having babies. Tell them having more questionable buildings than trees is likely more dangerous than enough trees...

I encourage opposition parties in all countries to endorse and work on the plan at a level they can afford, because that may also pressure the governments to act quicker. We can wish and pray, but neither the government nor the opposition are often of much good in many countries. It happens to be election year in the Gambia and every major party can afford spear-heading such at district level . If each opposition party chooses one district to partner up on this plan, the Gambia government will quickly find a few millions to make it nationwide. Similarly I urge all parties and caring rich folks in all countries to act, not wait on the government. The added trees will reduce the heavy task on whichever party wins. I am tired of writing, which is much harder than the reading some of you complain about. The countries that read and write more than us tend to be more developed on man made things. So let us end it here for today and ask which countries will pioneer it versus come along by when? Which ones will accept the recommendations, reduce it with excuses, or raise it in which ways for good or risky gamble? Again, how many trees are you ready to plant before you demand or wish for more from the Angels and God? Even if you sponsor the digging to the trimming aspects, the sunlight to watering team is worthy of consideration, then harvesting is arguably the hardest part for humans on trees. So how much annual harvesters (humans or drones), guardians, land 'owners' etc deserve? This is why it is a partial sponsor to give you food affordability and any other reasonable agreements you have. The best of journalists will publish and write their own editorials, have happy hours on it, etc; the worst of journalists rather continue on echoing complaints, defending questionable choices as culture or religious rights, etc but ignore what can reduce food inflation and comes with other benefits? May God bless us and bless Showlove Trinity: Let's learn, let's work, let's have fun.
