Read the blog about sequoia nature preserve.

blog: forest forever

post: there’s been a lot of talk lately about cutting down the sequoia nature reserve to make a neighborhood park. the space would include a playground, ball field, picnic area, and soccer field. my feeling is, what about the forest? the sequoia nature reserve is one of the most beautiful places ever. i’ve spent my childhood exploring it. i can’t imagine the trees being cut down or life without it. the local wildlife would suffer too. would you really want to destroy the natural habitat of so many animals all for a park?
