Oak trivia: The mighty oak is actually monoecious, meaning it it is both male and female. Certain People trivia: "DID YOU JUST ASSUME 'S GENDER" is the only joke and indeed the only thing Certain People know about gender.
Here’s a little story about trees. Once when I was in middle school, my teacher had the great idea that our class would plant 10.000 trees. Now keep in mind that this was in Denmark, were we like to think of ourselves as the most green place in the world. Everything went fine and we planted every single tree with the help of a ‘tree expert’. That was 12 years ago, not a single tree survived, they made the terrible mistake of putting the planting grounds right next to a large playground. I still venture over to the park once in a while with my best friend, just to look at the tree graveyard.
Absolutly no one: Every single science youtuber right now: "Have you heard of Trees?" Edit: Alright, you all wanted it, so here it is: The 'c' that was missing from sience. Also, this is the most completly arbitraty Internet Points I ever got on a comment!
Giordano Bruno depends on the size of the explosion generated. A tsar bomba, you just need general vicinity, and you’ll be good. A bomb like little boy or fat man tho, you’ll need to be decently accurate
It has been years, please, change your name already. I have been waiting, patiently, for all this time. i havent eaten or drank anything, as I have observed your name at all times. Im slowly dying now, after many years. Please, I just want to eat something after all these years. My wife has left me since I didnt do anything exept observe your name. My house hasnt been cleaned for all this time. The walls are being consumed by the rats and bugs. Please, I want to see my wife again. Change your name
Hey Sam, good job on this!! Even if a few few details were a bit of, you clearly put in a lot of effort to understand a complicated topic, and I appreciate you.
The fact that the first ever tree that owned itself was struck down by a storm is probably the tree equivalent of an urban legend about humidity and not flying too close to the sun :)
That's so cool you posted a video about this! I live less than a mile away from this tree, I attend UGA in Athens! This tree is a big landmark in our city.
I like trees. I always thought there was something sketchy about the tree that owns itself. I am happy that we know this now. So basically the tree isn't ever cut down to honor the memory of a dead guy, that's kind of nice. I like the way we do things like this. It's awesome. This is awesome.
Yes! Yes! Yes! I live literally on the other street from this tree! Everyone in Athens knows about the tree but it just kinda sits on the edge of someone’s property. It’s really cool to see a video about your hometown!
Ironic is this video that it causes a laugh on many levels.Additionally sad because the soldier jackson was right.The new tree looks like its in the way of a road eventhough it might be in the wrong spot... And this half as interesting guy kinda seems like hes attacking the trees rights?.. Also funny cause there aren't many soldiers who care about trees... Also sometimes explaining ideas like this kinda remove the initial laughter ;/
I have seen this tree many times and as far as everybody in Athens, GA is concerned, the tree owns itself, and nobody touches it. If they moved it, it would free up the road space to connect two streets better, but they leave it alone because it owns itself.
What about the tree that owns itself just across the border in Eufaula Alabama? The tree was given the deed by the city's mayor. It's also been replaced, but the replacement was also given the deed.
Here in New Zealand we have a river(Whanganui) and national park(Te Urawera) that became legal entities in the past few years in order to protect them.
WHY ARE MY NOTIFICATIONS FULL OF TREES??? But for real, I love how so many of the different youtubers I'm subscribed to are all coming together to prompt a good cause.
Serious question Approximately how big would the area of 20 million trees be? For simplicity, suppose a common tree breed and a common distance between each of the 20 million trees
Tree is a great investment Step 1 plant a tree for 1 dollar Step 2 wait until the tree grow Step 3 cut the tree Step 4 turn it into money Invest in tree!!!
If only we had all this easy flat land to plant these trees. Maybe do a video of the logistics of planting something north of 2 million trees. If you want, you could also talk about the planes that fly over them as they plant.
Interestingly, another small town, Eufaula, Alabama, has a "tree that owns itself" as well. Both seem to have similar stories. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tree_That_Owns_Itself_(Alabama)
