Tree Hacking In Tashkent

In the winter, many trees along the main avenues and in parks are trimmed. With, what looks like, a circular saw.

Severe hat-racking commences.

The Sad Concrete Jungle In Medan, Indonesia

Pity the poor sidewalk tree in Medan, both nurtured and abused.

A typical example, no planter box, no room to grow. At least there are trees? We're not sure the trees would agree.

The best of intentions, recycling a tire as planter. Uh oh, one tree's protection is another tree's noose, inevitable.

Final results of the paving chokehold.

All right, a little renovation and some green renewal. Getting close, a nice planter, too bad it doesn't go all the way around the tree.

Screw it, everyone is hanging out in malls anyway, time to bring the flora indoors. Plastic dominating.
