plant a tree

Plant a tree. You found several here when you landed on this old earth and you've seen many cut down during your time. You probably cut down a few yourself. The children who are born after you've passed have a right to find a few trees standing. But they will not if every person who passes through this vale of tears cuts down a few and forgets to plant any. Plant a tree. Plant a dozen of them, and then you will have done something for the generations who follow you, even as someone did something for you ages ago.
