Africa should act now and prevent the destruction of forests. There's no life without water, there's no water without forests and there's no forest without the will to save it and recoginze how vital it is.

Haiti: Africa Shows its Generous Side

However, the destructive earthquake that hit the Caribbean republic of Haiti, the nation' worst ever in 200 years, seems to be changing the general belief that only Western nations, which are more endowed in all economic fronts than their African equivalents, can offer help if a disaster of Haiti's magnitude were to strike any nation.

In the wake of the disaster, African governments and their people are also coming together with the world and have stepped up their gears in the rush to provide international assistance to the quake-ravaged nation, which unfortunately enough also bears the yoke of being the poorest country in the Western Hemisphere.
