Whereas, the holiday,called Arbor Day, was first observed with the planting of more than
a million trees in Nebraska,and
Whereas, Arbor Day is now observed throughout the nation and the world,and
Whereas, trees can reduce the erosion of our precious topsoil by wind and water,lower our
heating and cooling costs,moderate the temperature,clean the air,produce oxygen
and provide habitat for wildlife,and
Whereas, trees are a renewable resource giving us paper,wood for our homes,fuel for our
fires and countless other wood products,and
Whereas, trees in our city increase property values,enhance the economic vitality of business
areas,and beautify our community, and
Whereas, trees,wherever they are planted,are a source of joy and spiritual renewal,
