"When it took me an hour to plant just eight trees, I realized that taking 50 had been overly ambitious. I looked east across the mountainside, where charcoaled trees seemed to stretch out forever. Across the stream to the north, another mountainside appeared as an endless ripple of black trees...Who are we, I wondered, to pretend we can ever repair the harm we’ve caused?"
