The Trees Hide the Forest

Los árboles no dejan ver el bosque

For a long time, the town of Cherán, in Michoacán, was harried by members of the drug traffic who would extort the population, and destroy the forests nearby. Armed with sticks and stones, the inhabitants of the region decided to join forces and to banish the organised crime, to end with the clandestine tree felling and to reforest the forests.
