The world is not just home to us humans but for many other living beings. From animals that roam the skies, walk the earth and swim the depths of the ocean to plants both big and small, we all coexist in this planet that we call home. Many of these living beings have even been living on earth far longer than mankind. However, it is us who managed to cause so much damage and destruction to the planet while everybody else suffers. Oceans are becoming more acidic and ice caps are melting causing the sea level to rise. Island nations like the Maldives are at risk of disappearing off the face of the earth. Forests and other natural ecosystems are converted into agricultural, manufacturing, commercial and residential lands as we continue to improve the quality of our lives at the expense of others. If you look outside most modern cities, it is filled with one skyscraper to another with barely a few random trees on the outskirts. Not even stumps can survive! If we continue this lifestyle, will there be no more trees left for us in the future? Trees are cut to make paper-based products and wood needed for construction and furniture making. Illegal logging has mainly been the cause why forests are receding at a faster rate than new trees are growing if there is any at all.
(Via: http://www.deccanherald.com/content/604482/how-far-next-forest-way.html) The natural landscape has changed drastically over the years. A big part of the forest and natural habitats of wild animals and numerous plant species are now home to humans. And the trend continues as the population continues to explode and capitalists need to double their efforts to meet human needs. However, we are also seeing first-hand the dangers of deforestation as natural calamities strike us with more vengeance.
The solution to most human dilemmas is to support a sustainable environment. Without us knowing, the little things that we do have bigger consequences and it can likely result to our own undoing. What will happen to us if we run out of trees in the future? Where will we go if our planet is no longer livable? We may ignore answering these questions for now but they are just lurking there and often felt in the face of a disaster. Our planet is dying. It has been said over and over again. Loggers cut down trees but only a few plant new trees in its wake. The country will even have a more difficult time addressing important environmental issues as the Trump administration imposes further budget cuts including funding for the US Environmental Protection Agency. Any environmental progress the nation has achieved over the last few decades will likely go down the drain without the necessary support and funding coming from the government. So, instead of cutting down that tree that you feel is not working out for your home’s landscape, visit this link: http://www.allcleartree.com/trimming to learn more about trimming or even hire the services of trained professionals, so no more tree will fall down because of negligent human activities.

Some trees are nicer than others. There are trees that evoke certain childhood memories, like Christmas trees, and trees that just creep us all out: think a willow tree in the dark. Those tendrils are scary. For those of us in San Diego there's been a bit of an upset over eucalyptus trees. Get Out Of My Yard
Grind Them UpSo what can you do when you have an unwanted tree in your yard? There are several options that you can consider such as cutting the offender down, trimming it to nothingness or even attempting to starve it. Whichever one you choose is going to leave you with a reminder: the stump. There are some fun things you can do with a stump. Usually, however, it's just an eyesore. A big blob of leftover tree flesh. Maybe it's taking up space in your yard. Maybe it's right in the way of where your kids play. Or maybe you're just sick of looking at it and reminding yourself that there used to be a tree there. Worry not! You can have your stump removed! You can clear out that ugly reminder of what it was. Just think of the possibilities you can have with that extra space in your front or back yard! Also, by leaving it to the professionals, you don't even have to get dirty. Sounds like a win-win situation to us! The following post Time to Deport To the Down Under See more on: allcleartree.com via http://www.allcleartree.com/removal/time-to-deport-to-the-down-under While trees might not actually be trying to take over the world, they are definitely uprooting themselves lately. The weather has been less than nice lately which has had a negative impact on the trees around the city. With lots rain comes flooding. And with flooding comes mudslides and weakening of the soil. With all of that comes giant trees toppling down because they just can't support themselves as much as they would like to. It's not a happy thing, and those living this current nightmare are going to find themselves hoping they've kept up on their home insurance. How is the city going to recover?
These storms are no joke. The force of nature is a scary thing to try to fight against. Trees seem so powerful and eternal as they tower above the rest of the world, but take away their support and you get the picture. You might have some issues with fallen trees yourself. Depending on where your property is, you might have a host of fallen trees dotting your yard. No matter the size, you should remove them. It's going to be a big, back-breaking job. Don't try to do it yourself. Hire the professionals who can do the job for you: http://www.allcleartree.com/removal. Whether or not the city gets the relief money they're hoping for is another thing. It's been a tough winter storm that seems to be tapering off a bit. There's no denying this storm was stronger than perhaps expected. It's also seems to have lasted a bit longer than most of us would like. Let's hope that the storm is actually ending. It would be nice to get a bit of a break from all the rain and mess. No likes to clean up a mess they didn't make, but we're not being given much of a choice. Let's hope the power of positivity can bring us some sunshine and rainbows. At least that way it'll look nicer outside. The following blog post The Shocking Tree Revolt Read more on: allcleartree.com via http://www.allcleartree.com/removal/shocking-tree-revolt It probably feels a little bit like the world is ending right about now. Water is flooding the streets and trees are just toppling down and crushing everything beneath them. It's a bit scary to think about, but the trees aren't showing mercy to anyone. This winter storm is seriously kicking butt, although not in a very nice or helpful way. If you've been able to steer clear of the destruction, that's fantastic! It's not a pretty sight at the moment, but it will get better. If you need an idea of the gravity of what's going on, you should probably check out the news:
The third time might be the charm, but when it comes to storms once is more than enough. It's been chaotic and even if the trees haven't fallen down, they've taken a serious beating. There are probably a good deal of them out there that need a serious trim. A dangling branch can be a hazard so you should probably get that removed. You can count on the experts to have your back in this situation: http://www.allcleartree.com/trimming. It's time to roll up some sleeves and get to work. This hectic weather should seriously be over with. That means there's nothing stopping you from getting your clean on. No more winds, water or madness to undo all your hard work! Although, of course, nature does have it's own ideas. Perhaps crossing our fingers will help? Blow Me Down: Winter Storms and Falling Trees is courtesy of ACTS Blog via http://www.allcleartree.com/trimming/blow-winter-storms-falling-trees If this title doesn't evoke the image of a grumpy old man waving a fist at some neighborhood kids, we're doing it wrong. Aside from troublesome teenagers getting into your green space, there are other entities creeping up and taking over space. These could be out of control grass, a cat camping in your bushes or trees that are attempting a slightly hostile take over. Their roots can get under the sidewalk and if you aren't careful, a low-hanging branch might try to take your eye out:
Hopefully these trees are looked after properly to prevent any accidents. A major concern when dealing with trees is that if you remove too much of their lower support they have no where else to go but down. Proper tree removal, http://www.allcleartree.com/removal, or stump removal, http://www.allcleartree.com/stump-removal, then becomes a necessity. Tree maintenance should be routine for anyone who has them on their property. It's just as important as mowing your lawn or watering your garden. If you can make time for one, you should be making time for the other. Hey, You, Get Off of My Lawn! Read more on: ACTS via http://www.allcleartree.com/removal/hey-get-off-lawn Trees can stand up to a lot of things. They can recover from being burned. Even if you shoot a tree, it will survive. You can also cut off parts of a tree and it will still keep growing. Trying to remove a tree and miss some roots? That tree is going to come back to haunt you. Like all living things, however, even trees have weaknesses:
With warmer weather comes the desire to camp. Camping brings about the need for firewood. You've got to be careful where you get your wood from. Using the infected logs from a tree can transport the disease to a new area. For some tree borne diseases, burning the wood causes the spores to be released over a huge area. With a puff of smoke you could be infecting an entire forest. It sounds a little ridiculous but it's serious business. Do you have willow trees on your property? It's best to get them inspected to see if they are carrying the disease. There may be other trees at risk as well, so stay informed. If you have infected trees, proper removal will ensure that the trees are looked after properly and disposed of properly. We provide tree removal service that can help you out: http://www.allcleartree.com/removal. Don't leave things up to chance: let us do the hard work. The following post Not All Fungi Are Fun Guys is courtesy of ACTS via http://www.allcleartree.com/removal/not-fungi-fun-guys Trees are generally pretty. They have nice leaves, some of them have flowers, and they tend to provide excellent shade. Animals use the trees for their homes and the trees also provide a lot of food for us. They're nice to look at and they clean the air around us. All trees were not created equal, however. Some of the lovely trees leave behind a massive mess with falling berries or thousands of petals that flutter all over the place. There's one area that is happy their messy trees are going to be dealt with:
It's an instance where the residents and the city are actually happy together about the idea of trees being removed. No protests required! If you've recently cut down one of these mess-makers yourself, don't forget about stump removal! Leaving the stump behind is just asking for the tree to come back. Not to worry though, we can help you with that: http://www.allcleartree.com/stump-removal. You can rest easy knowing that the city is on your side. They also don't like having to wash the streets all the time and the energy for the constant clean up can now be directed to somewhere else. Sounds like a win-win!
