I LIVE in Plymouth and most of us who do, were appalled by what happened when contractors cut down our trees in March this year. They were providing shelter for the birds and insects, shelter for us and of course, as Val Bourne says, taking excess carbon dioxide from the atmosphere.
The council, in their wisdom, have kept those poor trees on show for everyone to see who visits our town. I took a photo today, and stood next to a visitor who had seen the news on TV whentime she had come to Plymouth. Seeing the devastation really hits home and it was very upsetting for both of us.
