Urban Forestry. The term itself appears to be either a typo by the author, or an oxymoron. So just what is Urban Forestry...

is the jungle creeping into detroit?

That’s it? One sentence?? Geezopete!

I’ll take a shot an say it’s a reason to continue to have offices of Federal agencies in congressional districts that haven’t seen a real forest in at least a 100 years...

It’s so that the Feds can shut down all the roads in town and make you get a permit to move around on foot.

So just what is Urban Forestry

I'm guessing its fines for cutting down trees in your own yard and grants for growing trees in the hood.

John Conyers is leading the charge. (This is hilarious)

I’ve been fond of the phrase “Urban Biathlon” for some time, and wondered what it may entail...

The Liberals see nothing but buildings....

The Conservatives say “Wow! that liiks nice and green doesn’t it? 100 years ago that used to be grasslands”

The Liberals still hate Suburban “Sprawl”.

Here in Sacramento, CA the enviro creepozoids continuously spout the liberal line to plant more trees. They cannot stand it when I point out that we already have plenty of trees. When they ask me how this could be, I point out that every year one of our main problems is leafs in the storm drains. Those leafs do not blow in from China, they fall from the thousands of trees. Liberals hate logic & facts.
