Let’s go outside today. Right on your block, you will probably find trees. And those trees will be in\u00a0tree pits<\/strong>. Did you know that in New York City, there are about 700,000 trees planted at the sides of the streets???!!! That is\u00a0a lot<\/strong> of trees!<\/p>\n

When you go outside, think about\u00a0why<\/strong> people would plant trees in the city. What is so good about having trees? What would it be like if the trees were not there?<\/p> <\/div>\n<\/div>\n\t <\/div>\n\t \t<\/div>\n\t\t
