If Trump's "big, beautiful" reconciliation bill goes through, 13.7 million people will lose their health insurance & even more will become underinsured. Make no mistake, thousands of low-income & working class Americans will die unnecessarily if it passes. We must not allow it.

Never underestimate the transformative power of new experiences.

Freedom! #trees

Forests are more than just wood and are important for the water balance. The groundwater beneath a forest is clean, oxygen-rich and excellent for producing drinking water. That is why forests are particularly often also water protection areas. 💚☘️🌿🌱🌳🌲🍀💚

One of the most impressive trees I’ve ever hugged! Budapest, Hungary. #trees #travel

Urban trees have got it tough. Here's a row of 8 tulip trees (tulip poplar in eastern North America) planted on the same day on a low-use path. 3 are doing well, 3 are dead or gone, 1 is just barely hanging on, and 1 was snapped in half, but recovering well. From West to East, here's the first 4...

Pro tip. Most times the oldest trees in a city are in cemeteries because those were the 1st places to be preserved. #trees

An old tree is like a work of art. Its nuances amaze you. If you also know something about arboriculture, the experience is even better. #treeride #arbopalm #vetree #arbol #arbre

Good example of how Bristol, VT is planting new trees where ash trees will be removed because of EAB. We don’t want to preemptively remove them and we don’t want to wait to plant. #trees

Nature is always an inspiring companion.

In case you need these today, something a little different on the #mentalhealth front. Holly Hatam paints beautiful images often with #trees & pairs them with powerful words #art #treelover #nature #mentalhealthawareness Check her out at hollyhatam.com

Whatever happens – Stay alive, learn, study, think, read, build, invent, create, speak, write, dream, design. Stay alive, stay alive inside you, stay alive also outside, fill yourself with colors of the world, fill yourself with peace, fill yourself with hope. Stay alive with joy. Virginia Woolf

This is the scary stuff. We can’t impede science because of personal beliefs.

Desde hace unos años, hemos estado sistematizando miles de datos para desarrollar una herramienta pública que permita escoger "el árbol correcto para el lugar correcto". Un pequeño aporte, pero significativo para las comunidades que quieran disfrutar de los beneficios de nos entregan los árboles 🙂

I love it when cities go to extra efforts to save and protect trees. This is from downtown Budapest. #tree

Some work hotel sunrises are good. Love a snowy winter sunrise.

A resident of Paradise, a town that wildfire virtually leveled in 2018, explains what it takes to build a home in California after the disaster.

Ever wonder if there was such a thing as a Tree Owner’s Manual? vibrantcitieslab.com/resources/tr... #trees #treesaretheanswer

Tree planting. More controversial than you think. Much like you can’t “out exercise” a bad diet, you can’t “out plant” a bad tree mgmt program. We need to preserve and maintain trees 1st, then plant them. #trees #climatechange www.climateinteractive.org/blog/trillio...

Chile is set to gain its 47th national park early this year — largely due to the efforts of U.S. conservationist Kristine Tompkins and her organization.

I’ve always wanted to attend this conference. Last year I got to experience Zurich. Maybe this year it will all come together.

Friendly reminder I am a tree - I cool the earth - I store CO2 - I protect the soil - I take care of the water table - I am the home of many animals - I produce oxygen - I clean the air and water Please make sure that my friends become more, not less.💚☘️🌿🌱🌳🌲🍀💚

Excited to dig into this book my daughter gave me for Christmas.

Have you seen the new AI features built into Apple’s latest photos? Apparently it can start doing some tree ID. Anyone know anything more about this? #ai #trees

I absolutely love seeing Christmas trees in windows when I walk around town.

I love this idea! It would be cool to somehow pair this with urban wood. So many people are saddened when they have to remove a tree that they turn them into tables and furniture. Imagine a beautiful drawing as well. #treesaretheanswer

This is my first Bluesky post! I'm a professional tree portrait #artist living in the UK. I travel far and wide, meeting and drawing all kinds of #trees. I draw them in detail and add their #GPS location reference. Hopefully you'll visit the trees and recognise them from my faithful sketches 💚✍️🌳
