http://www.registerguard.com/news/2003/01/28/9a.ed.col.chamber.0128.htmlEconomic prosperity and environmental quality are not mutually
exclusive goals. The Eugene chamber has long supported the pursuit of
both. Piercy and Matthews invited the Eugene chamber to join them in
planting trees. We accept that invitation. In fact, to make our point
about the important connection between quality of life and the health
of the local economy, we will commit to planting one new tree for
every net new private sector job created in Eugene in 2003.I guess this means that they will cut down a tree for every private
sector job subjected to "downsizing" in 2003 ...
