This is really bothering me. [View all]

So our Mayor is doing a Million Trees Initiative here in Tucson. A million trees planted in the desert. I could understand a million cactus, but trees?

If they want to plant them up in the burned parts of the mountain where the wild fires happen, yeah sure. It would help to prevent mudslides when it rains up there.

But we are barely out of a drought! And I don't want to think of how many will fall because the sand will work it way to their roots.

This is a disaster and money waste. We are not Flag Staff, a place that can grow trees. It's bad enough for the water levels with people growing grass and stuff ( things that die because of their want for water).

We are in the Senora desert for Pete's sake! Let's start growing things that likes the desert!

Ok, rant done.
