LETTER: Future belongs to tree-dwellers
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.From Miss A M S Hutton-Wilson
Sir: Anti-road protesters should take heart from the recent scientific report on decreasing male fertility ("Sperm count drops 25% in younger men", 23 February). Since temperature is crucial to sperm production, the snug conditions of the motorcar make men who spend long hours driving at greatest risk of infertility, particularly if they also favour tight underpants.
The protesters, therefore, need only hang out in the cool air of the treetops and bide their time, in the sure knowledge that the future is theirs.
Yours etc,
