All this turmoil there has been in recent times on Ailanthus, Nicola chez in the first place (I say primarily because it is among the first blog that I read in the morning) and Mauri in ultimis (you say so?) inevitably leads me to think about what I'm doing and what are my objectives in this field.
'd better do things in order and from the beginning, when I was little boy on a swing built by a great uncle with iron recovery that did not collapse because it is tied to a tree top.
by little I always had fun with my miniature hoe to remove the "weeds" poking around in the garden plots of grandparents house where I spent part of the summer holidays, when I was kicked out from the garden by my grandfather because I
holes everywhere.
Years later, when my sister and I to go on the swing smisimo for age reasons and anatomical, my father decided he had had enough and cut the huge plant, leaving only the stump.
must also be said that this plant was located on the border with the property of the brother of my grandfather, who until he was in life has always edited the "banks" and the fields, cutting the grass and "weeds" sticking to his side.
With the death of my grandfather and his brother first and then, the next generation has little interest (my father) or nothing (the cousins) to sound management of soil and weeds have grown in number and size.
That is, until I realized.
My conscience, from 11 March this year the name of Chloe, and like all fathers have a lot of visions and plans for its future.
My view is that I want to do as much as possible in my small way to improve the world in which you live, not to leave the same legacy that our parents are leaving us, bring some 'balance.
gotta start somewhere and do not want to preach good and bad scratch, so I start from small places daily life and working for this initiative aims to eradicate total dell'Ailanto from fields where my little girl will run
(or hopefully) next summer.
I do not want to do as parents who refrain from any experience or contact with the outside world to children to "protect" you can eat
the ground and mess with the turf if it pleases you, but I would prefer not to be successful a rejection of Ailanthus in the mouth as that secretes the toxin known (this can not refuse!).
in my path And if I happen to find other plants and have the opportunity, to eradicate direct or indirect methods, admit that this makes me feel better, I feel I have done something even just a bit.
There are a thousand better ways to make your mark and make the world better, I'm also trying to politics because that is a channel of the most powerful in the wake of "if you can not fight ...", choosing what I consider the least worst, that Antonio "benedettoIddio" DiPietro, and starting in the time that remains available to me from work and diapers to help out at local level, raise your voice and engage people.
Sooner or later, will also host a briefing on alien species and you will be well advised (even invited who knows).
