For The Love of Trees

There is a crying need for a more extensive transit system in Toronto … but not at the expense of murdering a group of our oldest inhabitants! These 200-year-old leafy fellow residents have been given a brief stay of execution until midnight February 10 allowing a bit more time for supporters to make their case for alternative subway station locations. Other sites for this particular station are available, so if you agree that these ancient trees make a valuable, life-giving contribution to our community, please contact your councillor, and say so.

And if you’ve not thought much about our relationship with trees, I suggest reading, the modern classic, The Hidden Life of Trees by Peter Wohlleben as well as the several other books he has written about us as a part of nature.
