SIR — Here are quotable conservation quotes: Forests are the ‘lungs’ of our land, purifying the air, giving fresh strength to our people. We are cutting our kidneys to enlarge our stomachs! It is our task in our time and in our generation, to hand down undiminished to those who come after us, as was handed down to us by those who went before, the natural wealth and the beauty which is ours.
