That is a cool article, thank you for sharing it! It will be interesting to see if the small population decline caused by the Covid pandemic is visible in the trees or other environmentals in another century or two.

The ripple effects of Covid and geopolitical insanity are still ongoing so, don’t worry tree lovers, our population still has a chance to have a steep drop lol

I think David Attenborough did a doc on how wildlife returned to cities after “lockdown” and just those couple weeks of less people being outside and what that looked like. Pretty cool maybe bezos prime or netflayx ?

During lockdown there was a run on home/yard renovation since people had to spend their time there. # neighbourhood walkers increased too. Lumberyards ran out of stock.

A steep drop is inevitable considering the tanking birthrates for a myriad of reasons.
