Arbor Day--The Other Green Holiday

We have a few words for the future eco-crusader (below) as he shares his whimsical lament on the woes of trees:  Don't worry little guy, Arbor Day is here, with loads of tree-centric ways to make a difference. Learn tree care tips from the Arbor Day Foundation, or help the Sierra Club protect existing forests. Contribute to an onslaught of new greenery, as folks in New York City attempt to plant a million trees, and The Nature Conservancy tries to plant a billion! And don't forget to break for an Arbor Day moment of awe--the oldest living tree, at 9,550 years and counting, was recently found in Sweden.
