The following excerpt is from "save the redwoods" by john muir.

any fool can destroy trees. they cannot defend themselves or run away. and few destroyers of trees ever plant any; nor can planting avail much toward restoring our grand aboriginal giants. it took more than three thousand years to make some of the oldest of the sequoias, trees that are still standing in perfect strength and beauty, waving and singing in the mighty forests of the sierra. through all the eventful centuries since christ's time, and long before that, god has cared for these trees, saved them from drought, disease, avalanches, and a thousand storms; but he cannot save them from sawmills and fools; this is left to the american people.

a.
god can save the trees from sawmills.
b.
it is up to the american people to save the trees.
c.
trees are able to defend themselves.
