While we were at Cheaha Park, we saw a sign suggesting there
were 3 trillion trees in the earth.
That’s a lotta trees. Think about
it. There are only roughly 7 billion people
on earth. That’s over 4 thousand trees per person. Wow!
I love trees, so I was buoyed by that thought.
That’s more than all
the brain cells in the US Congress!!
Just kidding (maybe).
In fact that is more trees than a lot of other things. Take a moment, can you think of anything
besides ants and germs and congressmen (just kidding, maybe) more abundant than
trees?
Yepper! The US
national debt ($19.8 trillion) dwarfs the number of trees, substantially.
Pretty sad, eh?
