Our problem is there aren’t enough trees planted in certain areas of St. Louis, causing a lack of oxygen, scenic beauty, and natural wildlife.  The problem can be seen in certain areas, where there’s either no wildlife, or very few, and there’s a lot of buildings, so the air is more polluted than in morenatural areas.  It’s worth my time because it’s important to have trees planted in our city where there aren’t already plants because not only does it do so much for the environment and air that we breathe, but it also makes our city look better and more healthy.  The problem doesn’t really impact Parkway North, because there are already enough trees around this area to where it doesn’t need much improvement, but other parts of the city do need it, and that’s where I’m going to plant trees.
