About this listen
Why don't we hear about the Lacebark tree? The lagetta was once abundant in Jamaica 200 years ago. Indigenous Taíno used its inner bark for rope, baskets, and hammocks but now their presence is rare. They are gone forever or driven out by humans who wanted more land. There had already had been room enough on Earth so everyone could live together peaceably, without any wars happening between them, all making progress every day while respecting nature's limits. That includes not overpopulating areas since resources should only support an appropriate number of people at one time.
