Hey friends,
Someone from Suriname has recently visited the website! We are so thankful that the website exists, so Mel can share his knowledge and wisdom to people that are in great need of healing.
Suriname is the 80th country to come to the website in about 15 months. "It is located on the northern coast of South America. Suriname is one of the smallest countries in South America, yet its population is one of the most ethnically diverse in the region. Its economy is dependent on its extensive supply of natural resources, most notably bauxite, of which it is one of the top producers in the world. The southern four-fifths of the country is almost entirely covered with pristine tropical rain forest."
"The flora of the coastal area is better known than that of the interior. It consists of some 4,000 species of ferns and seed plants and a large number of mosses, weeds, and mildews. About nine-tenths of Suriname’s area is covered with heterogeneous forest consisting of more than 1,000 species of trees. The Central Suriname Nature Reserve, covering nearly 3,950,000 acres (1,600,000 hectares), was established in June 1998 in west-central Suriname. It is one of the largest protected areas of rain forest in the world and was designated a UNESCO World Heritage site in 2000." https://www.britannica.com/place/Suriname)
