Wasn't Trump derided for wanting to plant a billion trees or something (I'm going by memory)?

Seems like it was a good idea but we couldn't afford to give a fascist a win. For the sake of democracy or something.


It was the political equivalent of switching over to LED light bulbs to justify continuing to drive a 10mpg SUV an hour a day commuting to work.

It was literally greenwashing his work to undo decades of environmental protection regulations and laws, while also forking over tons of public land to oil/gas/coal companies.


Once again a sky is falling comment that is pure lie. Do you people really believe this shit?


I think that was mr beast with TeamTrees.

I don't remember the derision though


Mr Beast is a rich prick that likes to show off his wealth to susceptive kids.
