Denmark Plants Trees

“A society grows great when old men plant trees whose shade they know they shall never sit in.” - an old Greek proverb.

     

I’ve always thought it a great quote. Now it’s finding life in the country of Denmark that has chosen to take an active approach in fighting global warming. They have sponsored a telethon to raise money to fund planting a million trees to reduce the concentration of CO2 in the atmosphere. It’s a small effort as these kind of things go, but it’s a positive one.
