Early spring and fall are the best times to trim our trees in the city, as well for removing all plastic debris that might be left behind due to being blown by the wind.
When annual pruning practices aren’t implemented, the results are always the following: broken tree limbs. We can’t afford not to provide proper care to our trees — because we can’t provide life for all of humanity, only they can.
Unfortunately, the recent breakage of three large trees near the White House could have been completely avoided had these practices been in place.
Similar reports show how over the last month we’ve had three train derailments in North America. Please understand, I am not against economic development, nor am I against America becoming its own energy supplier.
To the contrary, I am all for it. What I am against is the lack of critical, proper standards and requirements to ensure these materials reach their destination without accidents or recourse. And I believe this will require newer guidelines and standards for both transport and storage of these materials.
We don’t necessarily need to reinvent the wheel, but rather develop newer technology to ensure these resources reach their destination without negatively affecting our environment or planet (for example, oil spills).
The only way our environment can recover from preventable accidents that have already occurred is by introducing safer measurements, standards, and newer technology like “flexible transport containers.”
We are our planet’s voice, so let’s all stand up in making these newer regulations and standards possible, because our planet deserves every ounce of aid in which humanity can assist. Let’s start today so both our dear, beloved, life-giving planet and humanity can continue to live for billions of years to come.
