‘Leaves of Nations’ will share with the world ‘the spirit of people from all countries living together in freedom and harmony’. Here in Los Angles, that is exactly what exists, as it is one of the most muti-cultural cities in the world, with people from all countries living together in freedom and harmony.
“Leaves of Nations” will say many different positive things to many people, and be a huge eco/art/cultural project that will unite the community and the world. It will raise awareness not only about trees across the world, but history, educate about climates, and give people form other countries a chance to be near native trees of their origin.
It will create a sense of pride and identity for the neighborhoods included, and develop a sense of caring and awareness of history and different cultures.
It will remind us that we share the air with trees and with people and animals of all countries, that the world is really smaller than we are currently aware.
