digital camera with satellite link and a quality microphone, then it can be heard through abstract means that create a replica of the sound in the forest-people occasionally have the sound so loud that it hurts one's ears to hear it-probably some boom box in a car has rattled the windows of an urban peace-loving neighborhood with the recorded or even rebroadcast live sounds of a tree falling in the forest when no one was there.

Reasonably there are many trees that fall in forests upon the Earth each year that are not heard by anyone except for the animals that aren't hit by the falling trees (those are silent and deadly) and that is a loss of non-renewable sounds; there are only a certain amount of trees that will ever grow on the Earth and their habitat is in decline. If there are 100 zillion trees that potentially will fall without being heard shouldn't the government do something about it and pay people to stand in forests with sound recorders to capture the sound before its lost to posterity?

One day robotic aerial logging hoverjacks may float through mystic forests cutting mercilessly the remaining trees of the Earth for-themselves. The loud grating sounds of crenellated interference may sound recharging to the lifeless cutters that convert sound waves in to mobility impetus. Those ultimate yippees of forest megadeath may leave the only emotional note deep within some element of the trees that are cut and take the final fall to the Earth.
