those old trees of wood that give you shadow in hot days are pretty outdated, it's time for trees 2.0!! without all that shadow and all that pesky wood!

From the photo, it looks like in all the space this thing takes up, you could have just planted a regular tree. It doesn't make sense as an alternative in urban areas with limited space or whatever if it uses up just as much space.

That's aside from the fact that trees are helpful in keeping the temperature down during summer. I doubt whether this thing does the same.

It uses more space! The bulk of the tree is in the air, with just a trunk at ground level. This tank looks like shit and has been designed as a trip hazard.

It's a bench. Also at least lacks spikes, showing whomever designed this might be an idiot, but at least is not totally wasting that oxygen.
