Sports Letter: Trees are for ever
Your support helps us to tell the story
From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.
At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.
The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.
Your support makes all the difference.Sir: 'We have to ask what is more important, the life of a human being or trees', said Michael Schumacher about the Monza grand prix (2 July).
No one is forced to drive racing cars. The proper question is 'what is more important, trees that have taken decades to mature and which beautify their location 365 days a year or a motor race that takes place once a year?'
Yours,
