Our famous Armada Way blackbird has been singing his heart out all week. The moment we served the injunction and the work stopped he was all we could hear. #PlymouthCityCouncilTreeMassacre #plymouth #armadaway

"Monsters in the night felled 100 trees" It is not about planting more trees, it us about saving the trees that we have. https://t.co/tYFHY65TbS

The removal of more than 100 trees is part of a controversial regeneration plan for Plymouth.

Last tweet was actually a spoof, a good one since trees activists have seen and heard it all from many councils before...

@Kent_cc is this a joke? Your idea of public duty to consult? So Kent council are felling a tree to lay down plastic grass cos of drainage costs! Do they know we're in a climate crisis? @TheStreetTree @ChrisGPackham @BBCNews @kentlivenews @VisitKent @guardianeco @WoodlandTrust
@Shitlawns Have you seen anything else like this? We’re going way beyond Shit Lawns: Shit Forests here in the ‘garden’ of England. @Kent_cc @fstonehythedc

👇Yesterday's shocking message from @thameswater regarding the felling of Trees @WestReservoir. Waiting patiently for a new one to clarify what's going on there. @hackneycouncil are you aware?

But community bonds forged in campaigning to save the #happymantree will last. And determination that no more healthy mature trees will be taken in the endless redevelopment of Woodberry Down. Trees that clean the air, offer nature & green respite, memories & local connection.

This photo is from a year ago today. So many police and security for one tree! A brutal act to destroy the #TreeOfTheYear just a few months after it was crowned! What did this cost @hackneycouncil @BerkeleyGroupUK in money and community goodwill? #rememberthistree

What a difference a tree makes! A year ago today the #happymantree was cut down, with 50 others, to make way for.... a building site wasteland!

#Treeoftheyear has a serious message highlighting the lack of protection for ancient and much loved #Trees in Britain. The Sycamore & The Cypress saved after passionate campaigns deserve our attention to keep the pressure up. Deadline 13th December https://t.co/8T5fPTJtlU
