Go here to hear a Regan quote about hippies - and also lots of other
really, really, bizare things he said:

I actually meant to send that somewhere else. But since it's here...

He's the one that made the quotes. If he didn't want to be remembered
in this way he shouldn't have made himself a public figure and/or shouldn't
have said these things. ~ My guess is that he'd be happy to be remembered
this way...he said these things and probably meant most of them.

By the way - I liked Reagan. I didn't / don't agree with some of what he
stood for, but I did agree with some things and, mostly, I did think that on
the whose he was an honorable man trying to do the right things.

Hard to defend a statment like this though...
"Trees cause more pollution than automobiles do." -- Ronald Reagan, 1981

Maybe it was taken out of context or some such?

Reagan was an affable guy, and certainly had no problem laughing at
himself and some of the inadvertantly funny things he said. Having an
arrogant little stunatz like Bush in the White House makes even me
appreciate the humanity of Ronald Reagan.

LOL, perhaps you can show us a study where trees are responsible for
carbon monoxide, benzene, formaldehyde, etc. etc.

Interesting links. I quickly browsed all three of these. Tell me if you see
it differently
but what I get from these is: Some trees do produce pollution but most trees
also
absorb CO2 and "clean" the air. Some of it depends on what you consider
"pollution" and what you consider "cleaning". Overall the statement that
"Trees
cause more pollution than automobiles do." is probably incorrect at worst
and
misleading at best.

Still, it just goes to show that there are almost never simple answers. It
takes research
and critical thought to properly asses most issues. It is my belief that
there are plenty
or people on all "sides" that should research and think a lot more before
speaking or
else just shut up.

Thanks for the links.

Gary

I don't consider CO2 a pollutant. Those that do should just off themselves
and stop polluting the air by exhaling.

In certain cases, for certain substances, trees probably do produce more.

Yes, this study shows that the VOC's are a result of tree farms. Man
has altered the mix of trees in the landscape.


Again, altering the the mix of trees, harvesting pines and maples, and
letting oaks flourish.

This gem deals with only the aspect of trees emitting the gases that
react with tailpipe emissions (smog). If there was no smog, this would
be a moot point. All of the above that you've found, is a fate dealt by
the hand of man, not trees.

Perhaps you should seal yourself in an environment with elevated levels
of CO2, then.

Yep, that's why the atmosphere has become increasingly foul as we shut
down somestack industries & grow more trees. Why, 500 years ago, the
human race was almost extinct because they just couldn't breathe!
