Nah, they f****d up long before this during a moment when it was dictated that greed was good.

He didnt say that "this is the moment humanity f****d up".

He said "this is the moment when humanity knew it had f****d up".

Big difference.

And indeed ...I agree...I dont see how the French skunks of the world, and other climate deniers...are going keep their faith in denial after seeing whole forest die, and seeing vegetation zones move north on the map...and doing so so fast that it is observable in real time.

Should I expect protests against trees being helped to illegally migrate into the U.S? :-?

I shouldnt be alarmed if I see "a bustle in my hedgerow. Because it's just a sprinkling for the May queen"?

Yes. American trees would wanna move to Canada. And Mexican trees would wanna move to the US. As the climate warms.

Trouble is that there IS such a thing as "invasive species". Usually animals, but sometimes plants (like kudzu).

If Trump could "build a wall" that could stop fire ants and killer bees from crossing the southern border I would support that.

AND ...keep out the "Canadian bacon" (those feral-pig/boar hybrids) that are coming south into the US from Canada too!

Anyone wishing to see a movie about walking trees could consider The Navy vs. the Night Monsters [1966].

With no hesitation at all, I don't recommend the film.
