    People do this sort of thing all the time all because they don’t like the look of it, it’s blocking their light, or ruining their view. So I don’t understand why people are losing their shit over a single tree when old trees are cut down everyday for entirely selfish reasons. They’re the same thing.

    Some trees are entire ecosystems by themselves. It’s no wonder we’re one of the most nature countries in the world.

      You surely can understand that this is a culturally significant tree to many people? That’s like if stone henge was knocked down and you said “rocks get knocked over every day”
