Though habitat loss due to commercial agriculture and human settlement, has been brought forward as the main cause of the demise of the species, senseless cutting down of leaves for decorative purposes is also another cause.

Postcard 1; “Old cracks in a new Ireland”
This photos aims to communicate the choices of Irelands past, has had effect on the present and possibly the future. In the past the economy and the people of Ireland depended on farmers. For centuries Ireland moulded and guided people toward this livelihood often leaving them without knowledge of any other lifestyle. Now in attempts to achieve sustainable development it seems that the finger is negatively wagged and pointed toward the farmer.
The photo expresses sympathy to the hand of the farmer and wishes to convey the idea that the farmer alone is not to blame for aiding in the destruction of our earth.
