The Biden administration is spending up to $1 billion in taxpayer funds to promote "equitable access to trees," an effort it says will "advance environmental justice" and fight climate change.

Oh, those racist racist areas that don’t have enough trees - b/c of rampant racism!
I remember when the mayor of LA, the hapless Villaraigosa proposed planting a million trees - there was a small grove planted along a roadway near my workplace - the trees were planted, all right, but never watered or taken care of. They were burned-up sticks within six months. Sad to see... I heard this happened all over LA to those trees.
One billion dollars to plant trees?
The Bidenistas are criminally insane.
The trees will be dead after the derelicts wizz on them.
“There is unrest in the forest, there is trouble with the trees...”
It’s called Arbor Day?
Joe can drive his Vette around and sniff the trees. Only the young ones I suppose.
My (male) dog approves this message.
Only a demented, sicko pedophile would think you can “fight” climate change by distributing America’s wealth to foreign freeloaders and malingerers who live in sh*tholes due to their own actions and inactions.
The first thing a black family does in Memphis when a tree drops leaves on their car and yard is to cut down that tree.
I believe this is just more tax money that will disappear into the black hole of graft and corruption. Really they’re running out of names for the money that’s being taken from the treasury to pay off their cronies. Ukraine aid has been done to death. And the environment. And economic recovery. Etc., etc.
Cue the video of the “environmentalists” crying over the death of a tree.
Firewood for the downtrodden inner city ferals!
So I’ve planted 300 trees on my lot, do I get a lower tax rate?
I’ll applaud this if those trees serve as headstones.
I’m all for trees, but we already have the Tree City USA program to bring tree cover to the cities.
My neighborhood, and much of the inner city of Cleveland has tree coverage on most residential streets. Regardless of income levels.
Unfortunately on the more ‘diverse’ areas of town there is a habit of littering that is hard to believe. You can see people throw garbage on the ground within a few feet of a trash can.
Hard to beautify an area that the residents are Hell bent on making ugly.
What percentage of ownership in tree nurseries did the “Big Guy” get?
We will need a lot of trees when we eventually start hanging these people.
“One billion dollars to plant trees?”
No $10,000,000 to plant trees, $990,000,000 to manage it.
Only a sold out dolt would do something like this when families have to pass on some groceries.
Only an anti people idiot would do this.
Another year..another steal..we dont survive this.
