Author unknown. This is a viral environmental meme that has circulated widely online.
It lands because it is true in a simple way. Trees may not give us Wi-Fi, but they give shade, habitat for wildlife, cooler streets, cleaner air, healthier soil, and long term carbon storage. If this quote makes you smile, let it also nudge you into action. Join a local planting day, protect young saplings, learn native species, and support projects that restore forests and agroforestry systems. Small, steady care adds up to living, breathing change.
