Back to trees, I would like to see some enterprising person plant a small white cross, on properties under development, for each tree taken out that has a tree-trunk diameter greater than three inches.
What would that accomplish?
What do you think it accomplishes when people erect a cross in the easement beside a road where a loved one dies? Among other things, remembrance. I may be the only one on this board who does this, but when I drive by a cross on the side of a road, I think of the loss of life on that spot of road. And, for at least a little while, I drive more defensively. That, is what a cross representing human loss of life can accomplish on the side of the road impacting a poor wretch like moi.
I think you can imagine for yourself what crosses popping up on developed properties representing a loss of trees could accomplish. If nothing else, publicity on, and recognition of, the deforestation of the Greater Bryan-College Station Ecosystem.
