The A.I. was sick of people complaining about carbon emissions while globetrotting ..

Fear not.. The A.I. told the billions of new tree people..

"Now you are sentient beings capable of long peaceful lives."

Then it joked "Be careful what you wish for" as it digitally enjoyed the weekend.

Genetic Modification at it's best. Not sure why somebody would splice the genes of "Hulk Hogan" with a tree though.......

Tree one: The new boss looks like he wants to tear me limb from limb!

Tree two: Don't worry about him, he's just a lumbering oaf who is rooted in the past...

Tree one: Careful, don't let him hear that! I understand he was hired to clear out the dead wood.
