Description: Take the time to go out, find a friendly green giant, and give it a long hug! Trees do so much for us, from providing paper, lumber and fuel, to cleaning our air, water and soil. We too often walk right by these wooden wonders, forgetting they are living homes to many species, and working hard to stabilize our climate. So get up close and personal, and hug a living tree.
