Probably the former. Why? Shouldnt fulfillment be about the effect you make? ... Copied to Clipboard!

The local NRD sells seedlings for 90 each, though you have to buy them in increments of 25 of the same species. If you buy 100 or more (any combination of species, in bundles of 25) the price drops to 85.

Planting the $5 tree. The act of planting and nurturing the tree are fulfilling in themselves.

People aren't logical.
People feel better after donating used clothes that will be thrown out because there's no demand for it, relative to donating the monetary equivalent (which is in very high demand). --- Take me for what I am -- who I was meant to be.

Probably the former. Why? Shouldnt fulfillment be about the effect you make? Because the former is more tangible and involves more personal investment. Intellectually, you know that sending a cheque off to some tree planting company to plant five is going to be more beneficial, but your actions are so detached from the actual benefit that it doesn't feel like you've actually done anything. By comparison, if you hold a sapling in your hands and shove it into the ground yourself, you're getting immediate feedback about what you're doing and what impact you'll have (well, the tree might still die, but we'll ignore that), making it feel much more meaningful. This is why so many of those "send us $1 a day to feed an African orphan!" charities make a point of matching you up to a specific kid and sending you pictures and whatnot to show (or at least create the illusion of) the impact of your contribution. Simply sending money off doesn't feel overly meaningful, so charities make a point of attaching more meaning to it. --- This is my signature.

Obviously chopping down the tree is the most fulfilling by far.

The act of doing something is much more fulfilling.

depends.
If the tree is on your property then certainly watching it grow and stuff has continual rewards... but if it's just a tree somewhere then just pay the money --- "Salt cures Everything!" My YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/user/Nirakolov/videos ... Copied to Clipboard!
