We all know how important trees are in our world. They give so much in beauty, shade, and oxygen. Yes, sometimes they are problems like breaking sidewalks etc. but on the CSUMB campus there is so much available space and so few sidewalks and streets. You can help by checking out this website https://docs.google.com/document/d/17vD8RhnTkNFYBJ_0Xgqgb-DwtZkageQtJ7Jcejk7yKU/edit and then picking a day and time to get out in the fresh air and do something positive for our world. Chances are it will be fun also. They plan to plant 2,030 trees by April 20th. You can be a part of this effort.
