The root cause of the deforestation was rats eating the seeds of the trees.

No seeds? no new growth, no new growth? barren grassy island with a bunch of carved rocks facing out to sea...

Not even the tree huggers could have saved them.

Man did their share but ultimately it was nature.

Your point?

I'm kinda wondering what you point is. It seems like you are suggestng that since we screwed up Easter Island, that it's okay to do so everywhere else. By the way, rats are not native to Easter Island. How do you think they got here?

Strange to see a human being identifying themselves with rats, but so be it.

If you could follow this thread you'd understand my comments, did you see Post #31? I doubt it or you're too dense to understand.

Your ignorance is noted, and BTW, man wasn't native to Easter Island either.
