Trees and Human Health May Be Linked
Evidence is increasing from multiple scientific fields that exposure to the natural environment can improve human health.

In an analysis of 18 years of data from 1,296 counties in 15 states, researchers found that Americans living in areas infested by the emerald ash borer, a beetle that kills ash trees, suffered from an additional 15,000 deaths from cardiovascular disease and 6,000 more deaths from lower respiratory disease when compared to uninfected areas. When emerald ash borer comes into a community, city streets lined with ash trees become treeless.

Re: Trees and Human Health May Be Linked
Yes is is simply the fact that trees produce oxygen and absorb carbon dioxide.

In neighbors where the trees have been infested by this emerald ash borer and the trees die that there is also lack of clean oxygen which we really need for health's sake otherwise humans would not be having respiratory and heart problems in those areas.

New research by scientists at the University of Southampton
has shown how London's trees can improve air quality by

filtering out pollution particulates, which are damaging to human health.

Re: Trees and Human Health May Be Linked
When my mum came to visit the xmas before last she always loves tinkering in the garden...

I have a lemon an and lime tree in pots but they just never fruit.

Well, mum watered them and talked to them (I watched her through the window lean into each one as she spoke).

Well wouldn't you know it...they doubled their size in a matter of weeks.

Every living thing is linked. And we all help or harm each other one way or another. Trees and Humans. That is not amazing though.

Re: Trees and Human Health May Be Linked
Interesting story that happened a couple years ago. I work in Cleveland and there was a old church by the Cleveland Clinic that had a 200 year old tree behind it. It was absolutely gorgeous and I loved looking at it every day. It was probably planted when the church was constructed. So one day the church decided to cut it down. I was beyond pissed. So I don't know if it was my rage at them cutting down the tree or the tree and the church were linked but 1 month later the 200 year old church was hit with a bolt of lightening and burned to the ground. I couldn't breathe at work for two days due to the smoke but I felt vindicated.

I use tea tree oil for any cuts on the body...or for that matter any type of skin problem. It is a really fast healer. It comes directly from the tea tree in Australia...pure tea tree oil.:pyw:

did you knew that humans are trees that can walk!

on a spiritual side of things.

You can see trees as the high density universe Nerves endpoints!

All those trees are portal to different realities!

Dont search the source! This world is the source!
To live is to believe in the power of dreams! To dream is to believe in the power of love! To love is to Know the truth!
The Desire to Be fuel the belief that you Are which ignite the Will to Become which bring back forth the desire to be...
Let it be-come you! It means Stop seeking your higher self! It is seeking you! Stand still in your mind to calm the waters of your mind and then it shall find you, so you can ride those waves together!
your true self lies somewhere between your heart and your consciousness. It is called the heart consciousness,which is the creator, which is you!
The heart create the emotions and our mind evoke its purpose, from which we dream the life we live in order to imagine the nature of reality and finally remember love!

The highest Purpose of our mind is the ability to Forget! Go on and Forgive yourself!
There is no love in truth but there is truth in love!
Be authentic, nobody else can do it for you!

Re: Trees and Human Health May Be Linked
Symbiotic relation amongst Human and/or all living things and Trees, I can dig it! I felt this growing up in a National Forest Regional Area. I recall the beetle scare then forest deaths cause by said scary beetle infestations.

Strange may be the Africanized Killer Bees, commonly known just as "killer bees back then," also were unleashing havoc in other regional areas moving from South to North too.

Very interesting. I'm interested in knowing also about living close to an ocean bc most all plant life is there? Plus living so close to an ocean myself. I used to have trees that went up and curled around my cathedral ceilings in my house pre baby.

There is a way to be totally free, no matter whats going on around you. The power of love is much stronger than any of the negative energies. If you have a good enough ''shield'' nothing can touch you.

Now on topic...

I once saw a video of a guy testing the effect of music on plants.

On the first try he played heavy metal for x amount of time, and on the second try he played calm classical music for x amount of time. I know i have it somewhere on my computer, but i cant find it at the moment.

Anyways, the noisy music made the plants bend away, and the calm music attracted the plants toward the speakers.

Plants reacts to music/sound/vibration/frequencys and so do we, but the human ear cannot hear them although we very much react to it.

A forrest is FULL of healing music which you cannot hear =)

Denotes a healthier environment yes but also gives the color green which is therapeutic. I've gone been convinced it has much to do with the popularity of game of golf even though I personally don't play it.
