Context here was that Franky D served as president during the dust bowl years, when we HAD destroyed our soil. It took a *monumental* Federal effort in the Great Plains Shelterbelt which planted 220M trees to bring down wind speeds and retain rainwater, restoring productivity to America's farmland.

When Blanco arrived on these shores there was a ten thousand year old primeval forest that stretched from coast to coast. You could walk from Maine to California in the shade. By 1900 it was all gone. Every tree that could be reached with an ax or a saw was cut down. This is why FDR said this.
