Trump Towers no – Trump Trees

Donald Trump

US President Donald Trump doesn’t believe in the science of human-caused climate change. He wants to ignore one of the greatest threats to healthy life on Earth. Source: Todayville

Trump wants to bring back coal despite scientists telling us we cannot afford to burn it, and despite economists telling us there’s more money to be made and more jobs available in renewable energy.

A New Zealand group is planting a forest to soak up the extra greenhouse gases Trump plans to put into our atmosphere. They say they are planting a global forest to offset Trump’s monumental stupidity.

This is not a fund raiser.

They want people to go to nurseries or a charity and donate a tree or seedling in the president’s name and send a copy of the receipt to them to go on the list.

New Zealand started in a big way and has more than 130,000 trees in its “Trump Forest” in the last 6 months.
