Dear Editor,
[RE: Trees need more protection, 91原创 Advance Times, Feb. 4]
I was so happy see Diane Kask write in regarding 91原创 trees needing more protection. Every time I drive through Willoughby, I wonder who is making the decisions regarding land protection for our community? Are they ever going to stop building more condos and put value on our green space?
I choose to live here. I was not born here but rather moved here, by choice because of I loved it. I still love it in 91原创 but wish that people in positions of power would stop seeing dollar signs when making land decisions and start looking at our trees as part of the reason we live here.
Once land is signed off and turned into yet another high-rise, it is lost space that we can no longer enjoy, and it cannot be easily undone.
Leave some trees for the kids to play in. It鈥檚 good for our mental health.
Come on people 鈥� do better. Leave the trees alone already.
