Trees are better than carpool lanes

The trees! Where have all the trees gone? Gone to tree grinders, everyone.

Beautiful trees along the Golden State (5) Freeway north and south through Burbank are being systematically destroyed, and for what? A carpool lane on the freeway! What a waste.

No one uses carpool lanes, and those who do use them as race tracks. So, the beautiful trees and shrubs are being destroyed, never to be replaced.

Oh, we might get walls with designs on them and eventually graffiti, but no trees. Sad.
