One Million Trees and the 54 Ficus

Hosted by

More than a year ago, Mayor Villaraigosa announced his plan for a million new trees in Los Angeles.  But nobody knows how many have been planted, where, or what kind they are. Meanwhile there’s a media circus over fifty-four ficus trees in downtown Santa Monica that the City Council has voted to cut down.  Activists call it a “Chainsaw Massacre.”  A court has issued a restraining order and tomorrow night, activists plan to show up the City Council’s regular meeting.
