Aren't trees amazing? / myLot

The intelligent design of a tree: * It gives us shade * It gives us oxygen * It grows and develops without making any noise * If t is a fruit tree, it gives us fruit that can be attractive and delicious (e.g. Cherry tree) * It nourishes itself * it is fun to climb, so gives us pleasure * It gives us wood So, aren't trees amazing? Could there be life on earth without trees? I so agree with Joyce Kilmer! "...But only God can make a tree!"

We love our trees. Most of our neighbors have cut theirs. This saddens me.

In some German cities it's forbidden to cut trees even on private property. You have to pay a fine if you do so. Sadly, this is not the case in our town.

Yes, indeed. I wouldn't like to live in a part of the world without trees.

Yes, trees are amazing and we need them. Lately I learned that there is a tree which is already 1400 years old. It is a beautiful ginko tree. If it can speak as well as human beings, it must tell us the history well. It has witnessed so many things.

Yes, they are so very precious. Trees provide food, shelter and homes for many wildlife, without them we wouldn't exist.

I believe there once was Life on earth without trees, but not sure what creatures were living at that time of pre-history.... as to us they are an essential.

I live in the middle of the woods literally. I love my trees. They protect us from the storms and are amazing to look at. My favorite is a 100 year old oak that sits in the middle of my driveway!

Compared with factories made by humans, that are: often ugly, smell bad, cause pollution, can produce food that is not healthy, are expensive to build and if after they are no longer used, can be a problem to clean up afterwards,the trees are the opposite. The tree is beautiful, smells good, cleans the air, produces food in packages that are edible of gives nutrition to the tree.. Yes, only God can make such a fruit "factory"..
