It would be quite ironic to see a poster about the environment stapled to a tree. The best thing for postering is wheat paste or oat paste. Gluten, or the gooey properties of these grains when wet (the same property that many are allergic/intolerant to (IE Celiac Disease), allow for the posters to remain tacked up even after they've dried. Environmentally friendly to make and to use. Of course, this is assuming that trees don't have Celiac too, Ha!
www.celiac.org for more information about the disease that affects more people that don't know about it than do.
I did not find any web articles saying that a staple to the bark of the tree was a TREE KILLER
the trees are filled with rusty staples from previous bill postings no... everyone should not post bills about anything and everything on all the trees
but... the occassional message to the community is not that big of a deal
my feeling...
the Campaign Posters during the election season are really the major poluters
win or lose these folks should spearhead a clean up!
if more people lived by the boyscout mottos the world would be a better place
"take only pictures leave only footprints"
"pack it in Pack it out"
"leave the area cleaner than when you arrived" (meaning... don't just pick up your trash... pick up the other trash)
