noonereal Posted February 4, 2018 Report Share Posted February 4, 2018 Rainforest Connection is a very interesting App. A group of enviromentalists who are fighting illegal logging in the Amazon are using old cell phones setup with solar panels to charge the batteries located up in the rainforest canopy to listen for chainsaws. They can be heard many miles away. Indigonous Amazon tribes monitor these phones and when they hear a chainsaw they move in and arrest the poachers. In the meantime we get to listen to the sounds of the Amazon Forest. https://rfcx.org/ I thought this pretty cool. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HawgGoneIt Posted February 5, 2018 Report Share Posted February 5, 2018 I hear a chainsaw going right now in the Carpathian Mountains of Romania. Hopefully there is folks on the way to arrest them as I type. All the rest are quiet except for animal life. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
