A Tree Grows in Brooklyn

December 21, 2009 274 Comments

A tree now grows in Brooklyn…because of me (and these people). That’s right: Watch this little online video to see me plant a tree in Brooklyn, and then try to tell me that I’m not environmentally awesome! So, yes. I do believe in everyone on the planet being a little more aware of how our culture advocates trashing the planet, and I do believe we need to start changing our eco-behavior. However, it really was a bummer to me when being environmentally-conscious became so trendy, it got its own name – Going Green. And it got its own TV channel (of which I’m a part. Sigh.). I hate trends so much, it almost was enough for me to start embracing planet-trashing again! Alas, I think this is the first case I’ve ever seen where a trend is doing our culture some good. The only way the ENTIRE planet is going to change its ways is if its under the spell of a trend, because the majority of people are followers, not leaders. So. There you have it: a trend, used for the good. Still not sure how to feel about it…thoughts on this social responsibility issue?

    [..YouTube..] @surfdudezuri Not uless the tree gets REALLY big. Even then, by the time the roots get big enough to buckle the pavement, it needs to be replaced anyway because of deterioration from the elements.
