For most Americans, the traditional and time-honored response to Arbor Day is saying “Oh, it’s Arbor Day again?” Let’s face it, except for the Cub Scouts, most people aren’t really tuned in to this misunderstood holiday. So after realizing that it was, in fact Arbor Day (we looked it up to make sure), we decided to help the 99.3% of Americans who regard this day with a barely audible “huh” and pull together some facts. Unfortunately, those facts were eaten by a squirrel who lives in a nearby tree, so we couldn’t get too mad about it. Instead, we put together this less than helpful guide. Please enjoy.
