Shantell PowellBarring emergencies, it shouldn’t be legal to trim big trees during nesting season. Those poor birds nesting in those trees. If the babies aren’t falling onto the ground, they’re being tossed into the chipper. It’s horrible. Workers are destroying the beautiful maple trees next door. @waterlooregion #kitchener #NestingSeason #Deforestation #BirdDeath #Robins
@waterlooregion Kitchener won’t have any big trees left at this rate. We need more trees, not less. WTF, Kitchener? Almost all of the big trees in my neighbourhood have been cut down over the past two years. Why is this permitted?
@waterlooregion all of these trees are dead now. This is the Haldimand Tract. There is a moratorium on this kind of destruction. This is #Haudenosaunee and #Anishinaabeg land. Have these nations been consulted on this destruction? #LandBack #HabitatDestruction #Deforestation #Kitchener
@waterlooregion a few years ago, in the civic centre, there was a field filled with majestic maples and oaks. A condo was set to be built there. I contacted the developers who assured me the trees would be incorporated into the landscaping. The buildings would be built around the trees. The trees got cut down, and the condo wasn’t even built. Destruction of trees for nothing at all. We NEED those trees.
@waterlooregion I keep fighting to save these areas, and no one in power gives a shit.
