Whether you’re familiar with the concept or not, white-painted trees serve an interesting and practical purpose
Trees are particularly vulnerable to temperature changes in winter. During the day, the sun heats the bark, causing it to expand. When temperatures drop at night, the bark quickly contracts, which can lead to cracks and damage.
To mitigate this problem, trees are often painted white during the colder months. This white paint reflects sunlight, helping to regulate the temperature of the trunk and prevent it from becoming excessively hot during the day, reducing the risk of the bark cracking and damaging the tree.
This practice helps protect trees from sun damage and ensures they remain healthy during seasonal changes.
Barbra Streisand says she ‘can’t live in this country’ if this happens
Barbra Streisand recently stirred controversy with her online defense of Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis. Streisand claimed that conservatives are targeting Willis to tarnish her public image by scrutinizing her personal life.
Writing on X, Streisand argued that Willis is being unfairly criticized for having a private relationship with Nathan Wade, a subordinate prosecutor she hired for the investigation into Trump and 18 co-defendants charged with racketeering related to Georgia’s 2020 election results.“How silly that the Republicans want to have Fani Willis fired. For what? Thinking a woman can’t have a private life as well as a professional one? Men do it all the time! How ridiculous is this?” Streisand posted on Monday.She further criticized Trump and his allies, stating, “Trump and his allies are attacking Fani Willis, the DA prosecuting him for attempting to overthrow the will of the voters in Georgia. She has a private relationship with one of the prosecutors. This has nothing to do with the facts of the case and Trump’s brazen attempt to pressure the Secretary of State to ‘find’ more votes for him and to put false electors in front of Congress. It is just another diversion by Trump.”Streisand’s defense highlights the ongoing debate over the intersection of personal and professional lives, especially in high-stakes political and legal battles.
