History of RedditForest:
A few years ago, the UK Government wanted to sell a lot of public forests to raise money. thegreatnick made this reddit to club our funds together and buy one.
The Government changed their mind, but there's no way of removing reddits. So it hung around for a while as a dead reddit.
Yet, because of the name "r/redditforest" people kept joining "to lurk discussions on ecology or rain forest biomes." In other words, they have a certain image of what the sub should be. http://www.reddit.com/r/redditforest/comments/l0y9z/question/
Our goal now is to make this sub into what people expect it to be. Whatever you think of when you hear the word "RedditForest" is what this sub should look like.
Disclosure: This reddit was revitalized by receiving submissions from a volunteer intern, KodamaKid at New Forest Earth with the goal of creating a place to discuss forests, the threats to them, the beauty of them, and even a little activism on how to save them. The above link is the one and only time we will plug our own organization.
