Happy Arbor Day! Perhaps the third-best way to celebrate the day (next to planting a tree yourself or spending time in the company of noble and majestic ones) is to watch this inspiring video.
One of the Arbor Day Foundation’s projects has been to restore hope to people in areas ravaged by natural disasters, such as Colorado Springs following the Black Forest Fire of 2013 and the Gulf Coast following Hurricane Harvey in 2017, by donating seedling trees to replace the ones that were lost.
