First and foremost, it should be very clear that unchopping a tree has never been possible. Although in the essay “Unchopping a Tree”, the writer has given us instructions for repairing a tree if it is cut down, both the writer and the readers know the fact that this task is impossible. So, we can say that this essay has been written in pseudo directive style. As it is clear that unchopping a tree is never possible, the essay has another message. The message is that if we cannot unchop a tree, it is better not to chop down trees. In other words, this essay indirectly suggests us we should preserve the environment.
