A civic minded friend alerted me to this USA Today article on the value of trees

Some cities are finding money does grow on trees

By Haya El Nasser, USA TODAY
Cities are starting to treat trees less as decoration and more like public utilities now that they can calculate how much money trees save by cutting air pollution, storm runoff and energy costs.

We should plant trees everywhere they fit. Here is something almost no one knows about me. I have planted over 3,000 trees in Florida.

Thanks Joe B for the blog idea.
