Local / Sheffield Jul 06, 2017 - 08:48 AM GMTBy: Anika_Walayat
The Chelsea Road Elm tree is probably the most prominent of thousands of Sheffield's big trees that are under a death sentence by Amey / City Council. Already over 4000 trees have been felled and likely by the time Amey / Labour city council are finished another 4,000 could have been felled, about 1/4 of Sheffield's big tree populations binge wiped out! And where it will take several decades for any replacement saplings to fill the voids left on Sheffield's streets. So where once Sheffield had tree lined suburbs, now many streets are set to become barren concrete wastelands.
And for what Sheffield is losing on a daily basis see our video of the award winning Chelsea Road Elm Tree, voted as the second best tree in England! Which is why thousands of Sheffielders are desperately attempting to save the tree before Amey's chainsaws descend upon it, turning it into wood chipping's for the bio-fuel furnaces, which may be the real hidden story of why thousands of Sheffield trees are being felled?
A few screen shots from the video to illustrate what could be gone within a matter of days, with many thousands more trees like it marked for felling.
