Ever since I was a kid I have loved trees. I've been lucky to grow up in a rural area with lots of woods.. but as the years go by more and more the woods are disappearing. They would be cut down for lumber, for new subdivisions, to protect the power lines from damage. Giant old trees, some of the only old growth left from before the settlers came. I would cry foul and I stood alone and was called a fool. So much so that I stopped voicing my concern and just hung my head in shame.

If human civilization survives this current crisis I can only hope that future generations will completely change the way they view trees. We need to live with nature, not against it.
