Woods face chop along with scheme
PEOPLE who enjoyed walks in the woods during Christmas may have noted efforts to conserve the woodlands. However, a project that would have helped renew some of our threatened woodlands has been given the chop as part of budgetary cutbacks.
Given the scale of our woodlands and the sheer majesty of the trees they contain, it would be easy to get the impression that they are indestructible. Not so; they need to be protected and restored all the time.
