8-year-old's signs may change the future of tree removal on Sullivan's Island

SULLIVAN’S ISLAND, S.C. (WCIV) - One Sullivan’s Island 8-year-old hopes to save the town’s trees with his homemade signs.
After five years, Dominion Energy crews are back and preparing for another round of palmetto removal. With 523 trees slated to be cut down, the Town of Sullivan’s Island is considering new options to minimize that loss for the next cycle.
People may have noticed white circles painted on trees or signs placed on them reading “Don’t cut them down.” That’s the work of Keegan Novak.

The poor kid is parroting what his parents said ... he should be out exploring and having fun without adult issues cluttering his young life.

This kid isn't parroting what his parents said. He is old enough to appreciate the natural beauty of the palmettos simply by having a pair of eyes. What a crazy statement you made. I've heard of discounting an adult's comments, but THIS!!

Yea, don’t cut them down. That’s terrible!

That kid doesn't have a clue what he's saying, or why.
