      I do have to say, knowing how the U.S. is at least, if there was some weird chemical coming from the trees and killing people for destroying the environment, there would soon be no trees and a far worse environment. The sad truth is that humanity isn't gonna let something else one-up it by killing everyone, it's gonna have some major part in killing itself off.

      I got to ask. How does planting more trees help? Im not denying they wont. But how does it help? They basically have to be uprooted to be planted so how does it help outside of where you plant them. Always bugs me.

      ​@@milowolfface9392 It's for a better enviroment for us to live in. Ever heard of landslides due to the rain? Let's say there's a highway right beside an inclined terrain with little to no trees. If the heavy rain hits, it will cause the muddy soil to slide down onto the road and drag stuff with it, like rocks or single trees that couldn't hold it down by themselves, risking accidents and traffic jams. More trees on that terrain can reduce the risks of those accidents happening, as their roots would absorb part of the water and help holding down the soil in place.
      Trees increase the soil's ability to absorb and retain water, produce nutrients for plants, maintain high levels of organic matter in the soil, and moderate soil temperatures.
      Ever noticed how the air seems better when you're around groups of trees? They act as "livers", filtering atmospheric pollutants through their leaves, releasing oxygen in exchange. Trees also act as noise barriers and reduce noise pollution through the damping of sound.
      The lack of trees is also the reason many species are endangered, for trees were either their homes or held their home together.
      You should watch 'The Lorax', that movie explains it really well on how the trees can affect our lives. It's an adaptation of a book by Dr. Seuss.

      @@milowolfface9392 I think they are replanting very young trees. When you grow a plant from a seed and know you will replant it, you can sprout the seeds very close together using very little space because the roots don't reach that far yet (a tree, in particular, is about as big underground as above ground). However, if you don't replant your seedlings as they grow, they may quickly become rootbound and unhealthy and many will not survive. So they are starting them in nurseries and then replanting them in places where they can grow to maturity.

      @@milowolfface9392 I’m a year late but trees turn carbon into oxygen, which decreases a fuck ton of the carbon emissions that come from cars, factories, etc. The carbon emissions are a large contributing factor to global warming. Their goal of planting 20 million trees (which was accomplished) will absorb around 1.6 million tons of carbon, which is equal to getting rid of 1.24 million cars every single year. It doesn’t save the environment but it is a huge step forward. Additionally, more trees means there’s more habitats for wildlife and plants to grow and thrive, which is also better for the ecosystem. Hope this helped clear things up a bit :)

      Not his fault though, the script / dialogues really limit the character, making it so that it can only be played as a goof. There is video of Mark on the sets of the movie trying to convince M Night to change the stupid dialogues, saying that it doesn't make sense. But M Night and this other executive are like - "Nope, we know what we are doing". I think Mark was painfully aware just how bad the script was.

      So now that it's conclusively proven that masks did nothing, how do you feel about your mask fascism in hindsight? Do you still feel good about LARPing as a Nazi for 2-and-a-half years? Are you still proud of yourself? You provably made the world a worse place. You caused real harm, and you hurt innocent people. You should be ashamed.

    10 years later one of the one of the guys who Wrote/Directed the Crank movies did a much, much better job with this basic concept of a sudden mass wave of unexpected and inexplicable violence (even though HIS movie had problems of its own) called "Mom & Dad". It was actually scary at times, actually funny at times, the performances were wonderfully over-the-top rather than stilted, and had literally 1/15th the budget! (yes, $4M made a fun, high-energy bad movie while $60M made this utter embarrassment)

    The Happening was horrifying! Well, the writing was.
    I saw Split recently by Shyamalan and I liked the movie for the first half, then there were some weird choices he made, but it was the very end that made me not like it. Things like the girl staring at the screen for like 500,000 minutes... it was weird and ruined everything because of how awkward it was. So Shyamalan can take a movie someone is enjoying and somehow make them not like it. It's a real talent.
