Also tree roots will tear stuff up

And lawsuits when people trip over uneven concrete caused by roots.

Shade, cooler Air in summer, better protection against rain… 🤷‍♂️ Trees are 😎

Exactly man... fewer floods, more biodiversity, they look nice which is better for mental health and reducing hypertension (the number one risk factor correlated with deaths), some of them give you fruits or nuts to eat... Trees are awesome.

I think any city should strive to have at least as many trees as the number of people living in it.

That just means you can catch some sick air

[-] pozbo@lemmy.world 5 points 7 months ago

If they have surface roots, plant tap root trees instead
