      Are you guys going to manage the trees and make sure that they don't become too overabundant and cause devastating wildfires that destroys people's homes and the other trees in the area because they're too close together? And!

      Is there a guarantee that these funds will actually plant trees and not disappear into "administrative costs", and that TeamTrees won't be taking credit for someone else's planting? Sorry, but mass donation schemes are easy to divert and hide spending, especially with those with such broad goals and there's a loooong sad history of causes hijacked to profit opportunists who tap into other's good intentions.

      the truly meaningful change would be to stop corporations and nations from harming the environment for profit. small time charities are only putting band-aids on the wounds, merely treating the symptoms instead of the disease. if you live in the U.S. for example, a vote for the g.o.p is a vote against the environment, against the future of the species, and if you have children, against them as well.

      Your average “environmentalist” only cares about moral high ground not the actual effect on the environment. Thats how the west exported all our carbon emissions to china.

      Also, saying that the average environmentalist only cares about the moral high ground is simply wrong. It is the clarion cry of one who is too lazy or selfish to change their behaviour in order to help protect the environment.

    I think this is wonderful! Last year I planted 6 apple trees. The year before that I gifted our landlord a lemon tree when we moved. This year I’m buying a conifer to plant in my aunts yard. The city just told my aunt they plan to plant new trees in the public space next to her house. If you can’t afford to donate, there are seeds in most of the fruits we eat, you can start a tree from planting a seed. One of my neighbors grows plants on his patio & transplants them into public spaces in the middle of the night. He’s a real eco-ninja. Most people don’t even notice the new plants, the city sure hasn’t, but they make a difference regardless.

    I've often wonderedat how 'gentle'' and sensitive plants are, to be able to grow around things without pushing them out of the way. Fungi are fantastically sensitive too: you will often find mushrooms with grass growing right through the cap without deflection!

    You can’t believe my disappointment when I heard we were getting two cameos from young hank but neither was the elusive and powerful mustached hank. One of the few beings able to challenge muscle hank.

    I’m just going around and liking all the #TeamTrees videos because I can’t donate money.

    16:15 it nice to remind the kids about their chores.. but once the leaves have hit the ground they are holding moisture, heat and fertilizer for next year.

    I think the whole ground-sloths-eating-avocados has been discredited and Sci Show did a video explaining that it was wrong and deleted the original video but it seems to be appearing here in this compilation.

    I'd be more receptive about snow cover on subalpine trees causing the weird bends because it causes them to lay down and bend in weird ways I've seen it with my own eyes in the higher elevation trees development. But I definitely believe that human development was a Cause of that other Forest. Furniture makers back in the day new just as much as we do today and how to manipulate trees. By the list of comments I've had on this video you can kind of tell I'm a forestry person
