Wake+Audubon+Society

 On the 9th of January I went to the Wake Audubon Meeting where we learned about Champion Trees as well as bird watching. With the Champion Trees we learned that for every inch in circumference and every foot in height is worth a point. The trees of that certain species with the most points is then considered a champion tree but if there is a tree with in ten points of that tree then it becomes a co-champion tree. The guy who was telling us about Mr. WIlliams himself has found 8 different National Champion trees which blows everyone out the water. He had a ton of pictures showing the trees he found, and also some that are no longer living.

This relates back to apes because it shows the recreational and aesthetic value of the environment specifically trees. Loggers don't factor in that part of the value when they log these trees and neither does the government. Simple full-cost pricing would more than help stop America from losing these valuable tress and hopefully grow some more national champion trees.
