"It's awful that a public green space, an asset to the local community, has been destroyed mindlessly.
I would blame the local council ( Majlis Perbandaran Klang ) who are lack of awareness and the important of preserving our trees. They must have tree maintenance plan instead of asking the contactors to chop down trees for extra bug. This must be stop immediately.
If you live in Australia, New Zealand and other part of the world, then you will think twice before chopping down trees or even trimming. They have Tree Trimming law and Trees removal law.
Do we have such laws here ??
Trees are important, valuable and necessary to our very existence. It's not too hard to believe that, without trees we humans would not exist on this beautiful planet.
We must know the important of trees :-
1. Trees Produces Oxygen
2. Trees Clean the Soil
3. Trees Control Noise Pollution
4.Trees slow storm water runoff
5. Trees are Carbon sinks
6. Trees Clean the air
7. Trees shade and cool
8. Trees acts as windbreaks9. Tress fight soil Erosion
10. Trees increase property values
This is what reply from our local council ( MPK )

ReplyDeleteMajlis Perbandaran Klang must understand that protecting trees,protecting our climate and future. We have lost many trees in Klang. How serious are MPK in protecting our trees ?? How could this happen in a busy road and the culprit used heavy machineries to cut this beautiful trees ?? It is just a walking distance from MP YB Charles Santiagos office. Very sad !!!!
