Jump To Comment: 1It is of paramount importance that the trees in eyre square be preserved. This is not because trees look lovely are are all round nice things in general, it is because all life on the planet should be treated with respect.
Humans are inseperable from nature, we are intrinsically linked through flows of matter and energy with all life on the planet.By destroying the environment we are ultimately destroying ourselves. Life on the planet is not under threat from human activity, life will survive but the environment left for humans to live in will not be cosy at all. By felling trees we cut off our oxygen supply.
By felling trees we destroy the natural habitats for numerous animal species.
