Thats not true. Once most of the trees have been destroyed we could privatize the remaining ones and charge people money to come look at them. All under the guise of “we’ve done everything we can to protect the trees”.
Parks with entrance fees exist
Welcome back my friends, to the show that never ends
We’re so glad you could attend, come inside, come inside
There behind a glass stands a real blade of grass
Be careful as you pass, move along, move along
Took all the trees, put them in a tree museum. Then they charge all the people a dollar and a half just to see 'em.
Unless it bears fruit
Or saps, rubber trees and maple trees
Or useful barks. White birch, cinnamon.
National parks and protected lands exist too. Conservation is a vital tree-reliant field.
In capitalism, things only have monetary value.
A mature oak tree is worth over a hundred grand. Alive. This is engagement bait for being wrong.
Conflicting because i really love things made of wood. Wood paneling (cedar t&g), my wood siding, nice wood furniture etc…
One good thing is it really lasts. My siding is 50 years old and only has a couple bad spots I need to replace. And I imagine vinyl siding manufacturing is horrid for the environment.
Capitalism just hasn’t gone far enough.
Soon parks will have locked gates and an entry fee so they can monetize trees while they are still alive.
