have you seen the polar ice caps lately? They are melting. Global warming is real. The idea that man is causing it is not. Climate change is a natural occurance.

@yerk3 Not to worry...that tree was knocked over by a bus 3 week ago

@lsi624 How is planting trees thoughtless? It makes the air cleaner and makes the street look nicer.

@surfdudezuri Not uless the tree gets REALLY big. Even then, by the time the roots get big enough to buckle the pavement, it needs to be replaced anyway because of deterioration from the elements.

Boring...I hate your attitude...im going to chop down a dozen tree's in my neighborhood just to balance out your thoughtless actions.

@eric5335 Ahh boy that mentality problem again.Step one forword then step back two.When you put money in a forest to be "saved" that money is coast probably 2 forest somewhere else.And we can chat about what kind of methods to use,the fact is not the forest need to be saved,its us the human is need to be saved from fake procreation.But honestly how can we say that we saved a forest,its just sedation for ourself when we step and step clooser for...

@belaerdei Confusing, right? Start with reading about how the American Buffalo was saved. You will have to read about how libertarian environmentalism works. Don't reject, just because you hear the word "libertarian". Be open minded and read about it yourself.

@eric5335 Yes confused a litle what you written there.The forest need to be saved?Or if i put value(money)in a forest that change the fact why the forest need to be saved at the first place.

[eric5335]

@belaerdei "And the American mentality again buy forest with money like a forest can be meassured in money lol."

Exactly. That would actually help save some forest habitats. Property rights to the owners of a forest along with putting a value to the forest would help keep it alive rather than have everybody collectively use it (like with the Rain Forest in South America). Confused? Look at history. The American Buffalo was saved that way and some endangered Elephants in Zimbabwe.
