A DAY IN THE CLOUDS

Give Ugly a Chance!

Don't Make Paper with My Home!
Billions of trees are being cut down every year to make paper for humans. Every tree that is cut down is a part of the habitat of animals such as these koalas. In this way a lot of animal homes are being destroyed! Is it right to make animals homeless so that humans can have more paper?
