I have a suggestion for you. In times of trouble and strife, there is therapeutic benefit in being among trees and in physical contact with them. So if you can, go hug a tree today, the bigger the better. This huge old chinkapin oak is known as The Great God Tree.

Lest we think that everyone hugs trees: I teach field courses for everyone from toddlers to adults. Many people are reluctant to hug or even touch a tree, and I have to persuade them. I teach 6-year olds to measure trees by wrapping their arms around them, but some parents are worried.

The botched biological definitions in last week's executive order means that the current White House is officially bad at sex.
