Thank you for the detailed comment - I was like, oh no what I do with that line wrong. Then, a compliment. Repeat.

I'm not sure where the 's' in crisps came from. It doesn't make sense in any context - but fixed.

I agree - I was unsure of adding the birds, it felt out of place. Yet, without it, it's an expression of pain - whereas the birds make it so much more a tragedy and reality. It also connects to the fact that forests are not simply 'oxygen machines', but they ar home to millions of species.

Thank you once again - this is a great comment to wake up to :D
