Thank you Greenpeace for always supporting me and this community. I am honored to be your friend. You have proven to me you care and these are just not words… CZ, you are my hero I started Hogs with a Heart to support you and Giggle Academy. The $LUNC community has made many donations and we already raised over 26 Million LUNC for Giggle. The wallet is yours. Yi, you are the communities Den Mother. I’m certain, as a woman of power, you share the compassion GP already stated. So many lives lost. So much suffering has already happened. Sadly, as stated, some very strong people that believed that last 4 years may show signs of hope are not able to sustain longer pain. I realize you have a plan and that a huge recovery isn’t easy. I respect your position and decision either way. I think it would mean the world to these people if they saw some kind of engagement to our posts. This would show the community you are still here. I didn’t ask when I didn’t ask for a price All I can ask is a sign that we are not alone. The animals in the zoo are growing restless Respectfully, John

Replying to @VegasMorph
You can all hate Greenpeace Just like all Democrats hate Trump Greenpeace question. How is GP a Scammer What has he done to rug the community pool Did he create a “project” represented by a “coin” that he suggests you Swap your precious LUNC to him and in turn gives you a worthless project coin. Vegas, you have been asked direct questions by me before because I am willing to give everyone a fair chance. You like to hate but you never give any evidence to support the hate. Just sounds very Democratish of you. Help me understand where the hate comes from. If Greenpeace is a scammer, he sucks at it because he hasn’t received anything from the community aside from his recently created validator who is crushing yours by the way. To me It seems like you are just a little jealous @Greenpeace06_09 Is my friend who I have know for 3 years. He never asked me for anything I have learned more from him than anyone else in the community. Recently I have learned a lot from @FelineFortune_ and @LUNCboy01 I’m sure I missed someone but the days of constant in fighting should stop. It won’t because you are part of our problem. For some reason you think you have a higher voice in LUNC Maybe it’s true because your voice is ground level to almost the entire community. Perhaps sub level.

Stag beetles can grow up to 3 inches long with mandibles that exert a force of 1.5 pounds, strong enough to snap small twigs. These forest giants live for 3 to 7 years, mostly as larvae, feeding on decaying wood, and males use their antler-like jaws in fierce mating battles. Their numbers are declining due to habitat loss from deforestation.🪲🌳

Earwigs have been around for 208 million years with their iconic pincers evolving to fold wings at a 40-to-1 ratio, a feat of natural engineering rivaling origami. They can sprint at speeds up to 3 feet per second and release a foul-smelling chemical to deter predators. 🐞🍃

Victorinox Swiss Army Knives have been made in Ibach, Switzerland, since 1884, using a patented steel blend with 15% chromium for durability. Each knife undergoes 100 quality checks, and their iconic multi-tool design inspired NASA to use them on space missions starting with Apollo 11 in 1969. 🇨🇭🔪

The Mapinguari is a legendary creature in Amazonian folklore standing up to 3 meters tall with thick fur and a single glowing eye. Indigenous tales describe it as a protector of the forest that can only be defeated with a wax bullet made from a Christmas Mass candle. Another myth, the Caapora, depicts a giant who guards the rainforest fauna and punishes hunters by disorienting them for days. 🌳👁

The Atacama Desert in Chile is the driest place on Earth, with some areas receiving less than 1 mm of rain per year, thanks to its unique position between the Andes and the Pacific. Its soil is so barren that NASA uses it to test Mars rovers, and scientists found microbes there that survive by eating salt to extract water. 🏜🔬

If you take the "F" from "Freebeer" and move it to the end of the word, then read it backwards, it becomes "Freebeer" again! 💥 What other words can you think of that create a similar effect when you rearrange their letters this way? 🧐🍺

Champagne Bollinger has been crafting iconic sparkling wines since 1829 with a signature style blending intense pinot noir and crisp chardonnay for a creamy, toasty finish. Their 180 hectares of vineyards, mostly Grand and Premier Crus, produce just 2.5 million bottles annually, and they’re the only house with over 800,000 reserve magnums for unmatched depth in every sip. A family-owned gem that even James Bond can’t resist! 🍾🥂

Costa Rica packs 5% of the world’s biodiversity into its tiny borders, with over 500,000 species thriving in its rainforests and coasts. It’s home to the resplendent quetzal, a bird with tail feathers twice its body length, and generates 99% of its energy from renewables. A green paradise with serious eco-cred! 🇨🇷🌿

The immortal jellyfish Turritopsis dohrnii can cheat death by reverting its cells to a juvenile state after reaching maturity, a process called transdifferentiation. Found in oceans worldwide, it’s been doing this for millions of years and can theoretically repeat the cycle forever. Nature’s real-life fountain of youth! 🌊🔄
