They cut down a whole row of trees out the front of my apartment...I can see my air conditioning bills going up.
Damn power company did it cause of the lines.
The trees gave me peace of mind and blocked some of the street noise and now they are gone. I am really a tree kinda guy. It almost hurts me to see them cut down. I don't know why I'm like this but have always been like this. Nowadays everywhere I look trees are being cut down to make way for shopping malls, suburban sprawl etc and it really makes me sick.
The lack of regard for trees shows how we treat our environment. Rape the land with no care for natural balance or order and mold it to fit our present needs. The biggest disaster is what is happening to our rain forests and every day acres upon of acres of it disappear. Not to mention all the plants that science hasn't even learned about that could give medicinal cures to diseases and the oxygen that they provide. It's sick.

Oh fuck yes I have. My lake house has that problem all the time. But in southern Indiana there are so many trees I can see why they have to aggressively cut down lots of them. IPL here in Indianapolis could have trimmed these trees clear instead of cutting the whole thing down. It;s disgusting how bad it looks and one huge one that is maybe a hundred years old now still stands but it is just the huge trunk...no limbs at all...it's an eyesore.

I don't understand how people can't see the beauty in things like trees and would rather have dry, boring, dead looking concrete structures.
I will be really sickened if there is ever a time where there are no trees/plants or a very limited amount of them.
I can see how people can think "fucking hippies" about people that think this way but it's really immature to think that, it's fucking retarded actually.

I'm considering just not paying my electric bill. Let em disconnect me. I'll move and just let it go on my already ruined credit score.

Well the power company would then have to pay for infrastructure. Think of the cost. But you would think that would eventually pay for itself with the cost of tree trimming and downed lines from ice storms etc.
