that's why we're dying

poor trees they get no respect. everywhere i go, i see trees getting mercilessly cut down for construction space. trees that have been growing in their spot for decades, oh they don't matter because i need to build some shit there.

there's a little hill that i can see from my window, it's been covered by a dense canopy of trees since forever. and then, someone decided that they needed to build some shit and started cutting down the trees so that trucks could pass.

now the hill is almost bald and it just looks so damn miserable from here.

we all know that trees are good. they're gentle on the eye and good for the environment, not to mention they're home to thousands of critters, critters that now suddenly have no more home.

trees are so good and yet no one gives a shit about them, that's why the temperatures in this little island are soaring.

sometimes the builders try to make everyone feel better by planting rooftop gardens and whatnot, pretending that everything will be alright, cos you know, having a few plants on a roof is exactly the same as the few giant trees that were once here.
