    TED guys managed to impose the red carpet on the scene but didn't impose an audible sound standard. What a shame!

    He didn't mention that trees also attract consumers when placed in shopping centers and store fronts

    I would not include the roadway in the "public realm" -it's where the oil cartels do business.

    The sound is too low. Too bad, it's a good talk.

    I have to wonder about the US in regard to this. I can't imagine there are not many American cities that do not have laws like those in Canada. I live in a city that went from 10k to 600k in 50 years pretty much all streets have trees it is a municipal requirement. Toronto has specific laws not only promoting trees but also protecting them. An aircraft picture of my home town shows only trees. Even cities like Regina in the middle of the prairies plants trees. Trees do cost money and must be looked after and sometimes replaced. The street next to ours lost almost all its trees in an ice storm and the city had too come back and remove the stumps and replace them.

    Love this talk! love these ideas!....but who is the camera person...speaker will be referring to his slideshow and the camera person won't show it. spends a lot of time on audience, focusing on pretty girls???...once stopped on a man yawning and wiping his eyes (inferring the man was bored?...then a girl texting during presentation...why is that being filmed?) fabulous talk!...terrible camera work

    Great insight and inspirational talk. Shame so many shots of bored-looking, yawning people were included, they really weren't required and as someone else mentioned, some interesting slides were missed while the bored, yawning people were on screen, which is disappointing. Great talk, dodgy production. :/

    As an American Tree historian I need to suggest folks enjoy last of fully maturing trees as they will be last human specimens to surpass age 100 ever again. As after 1955, we no longer plant trees like they had back in old days. No, todays trees do not fatally suffer from modern pollution and debris filled soil. They just take 35-45 years for humans to do everything can to kill them....we shoot horses don't we?

    They look good, they shade the street, clean the air, cool the earth, provide habitat, prevent t soil erosion and flooding.

    He didn't mention tree roots ruining people's property. Leaves clogging drains in the street. The street flooding due to too many leaves. And my personal favourite, leaves filling every crevice of my car.
    I like trees as much as anyone but, when they cause issue to ones property, then I'm not a fan. Plus council's seem to be spending our money on trees but, won't maintain the street, that's nice...

      Though your critique is worth taking in to account, I believe many Americans park their cars in garages. The additional issues of planting trees everywhere don't seem to outway the benefits.

    • @CONCERTMANchicago

      All surface roots you see are just on their way to better locations without forced to grow over compacted soil.

      Drains wouldn’t be necessary or clogged if leaves were allowed to fall upon biologically rich living soil, which absorbs water devours organic waste and, eliminates runoff ,working as a battery to store hydration which creates a stable cycle of moderate precipitation. floods and drought are the price we pay for our vain and wasteful use of concrete, creating a hideous impenetrable seal of sterility over the earths crust.

      @@isidoreaerys8745, you're talking about that magic surface. Where are planet Earth touches the universe.
      Yet scientists admit they don't know what makes up 75% of outer space, and have yet to categorize 75% all the unknown species in the soil.
