Aye it is fair depressing when you think of the living and working conditions those people have to put up with.

 

Best to just look at the comedy factor really:laugh1:

 

On a positive note it was taken from an article discussing the value of Earth's biomes. ATM they rate rain forest as $91-£23,000 per hectare per year key value being climate regulation, gene banks(for medicinal plants etc.) and erosion prevention.

My mate used to work on boats all round the world. When he had first started, and was, in his own words a 'bit green' he was working in Brazil, redoing work that the locals had got wrong....the point is, the locals were cuttin curved handrails out of hardwood slabs, wearing flipflops (de-rigeur in brazil) and shorts, and 3' bars with the chains so loose you could have got your hand in between the bar and chain lol. He pointed this out, and how dangerous it was, and they laughed at him, telling him that you cant cut round corners with a tight chain:lol:
