Rain forest connection high tendency of saving the rain forest with old cell phones.

It's a technology that has emerged quiet recently and proved to be necessary for saving the rain forest.

Rain forests are known to have some of the most complicated sounds capes on the planet. In this dense noise of insects, primates, birds, and everything else that moves in the forest. The question is how can you detect the sounds of illegal logging?

The old cell phone you have sitting in your desk drawer may have the answer.

How do you go about saving the rain forest with old cell phones?

After a visit to the rain forests of Borneo, physicist and engineer Topher White was struck by the sounds of the forest. In particular, the noises he couldn’t hear.

While on a walk, White and others came across an illegal logger sawing down a tree just a few hundred meters away from a ranger station.

This incident set White thinking that perhaps the best way to save the Earth’s precious rain forest is to listen to its loggers and poachers. The innovation he came up with, Rain forest Connection, uses old cell phones to help to save the planet in a big way.

It’s hard to feel like these actions carried out have an impact in solving a problem like deforestation. We can choose to change our spending habits to stop the economic support of deforestation, but this doesn’t necessarily have an impact at the root of the problem.

We can, though, choose to support projects like Rain forest Connection!

If you have an old cell phone you want to give a second life saving the rain forest, you can send it to Rain forest Connection, and if the device doesn’t work for their needs, the donation will still go to supporting the project. You can check out how you can get involved with this project over on the Rain forest Connection website.

Perhaps it is time to change the narrative about saving the planet. We need to feel empowered and the more we understand how our small actions can have an enormous impact, the more we engage others to do the same.
