Tragedy of deforestation

The video feeds from news channels show how much of mudslide slammed into villages of Leyte leaving a hundred people missing or dead. I was watching the news and people were covered with mud, lifting the dead and the villages were just wiped out by the landslide. It's a pity to see this kind of tragedy knowing that if there were trees..lots of them instead of bare mountains, it might've prevented a total landslide of mud.

Maybe this tragedy would bring attention to the illegal logging and deforestation of our natural resources.
