First, a few things we must remember about trees:
- Trees are beautiful and are something that most people epitomize as nature at its most exquisite.
- When buildings are created, trees are often sacrificed without thought of replacement.
- Trees have a natural life span and need to be routinely replaced when they get injured, sick or simply too old.
- Trees are the natural home for other living creatures including many birds, essential insects and small mammals.
- When the trees die, those creatures, including many endangered species of birds that live in the trees will also vanish. In turn, so may mankind.
- Trees inhale carbon dioxide (C02) (a gas poisonous to humans) and exhale oxygen (O2) which man requires to exist. Humans inhale oxygen and exhale carbon dioxide. Trees therefore are man's natural and most essential partner.
- Each year suburbs push deeper into wild land, destroying more trees, without thought or effort of replacement of trees.
- Scientists show that destruction of the forests leads to a build up of CO2 in the atmosphere which can be linked to global warming.
We would die from CO2 poisoning if there were no trees. Birds and other animals that breathe as we do would also become extinct. This sounds awfully grim. What can you do? By Donating to the Huntington Beach Tree Society you become part of larger effort to romote trees and help mankind to keep one of nature's most critical partnerships in balance.
But why should you donate to the Huntington Beach Tree Society and not some other organization with a glitzier website? When you contribute to the Huntington Beach Tree Society your money goes straight toward getting trees into the communities of Southern California. We are lean and mean which means very little of your hard-working support goes to non-functioning tasks such as administration. We spend time educating children, teachers and people like you how to plant and care for trees. We cut through bureaucratic red-tape to get things done quicker and more efficiently in less time. We survive solely from government and business grants and people like you.
