Concrete Human
André Clemetsen
More than just a human being
I am more than just a human being
wandering around without feeling that I am living a complete life.
My breath does not receive enough oxygen to feel that love flows in the blood and runs like a society through all my veins.
Street trees in London are counted per kilometre of street, and the count varies a lot from one borough to the next. The public health researcher Mark S. Taylor and colleagues set those counts against the antidepressants prescribed in each borough. One more tree per kilometre came with 1.18 fewer prescriptions per thousand residents. Every tree in the count stands at a kerb, in front of a house or a shop.
