It’s pleasing to realize the hard work of tree activists in Santa Monica has handily paid off to help create a culture of consciousness about our valuable urban forest (“City to give trees another look,” page 1, May 9, 2008). Not to be overlooked in the latest tree concern should be that fact that the carob tree is a reliable food, in addition to providing shade as insulation for the summer. [I] hope there will be many more opportunities to save trees in Santa Monica. Treesavers persevere.
