empty concrete nest

Elizabeth Green writes that, We can plant more trees. We can't replace a baby or a mum. Letters 19 April

The truth is, we can replace a baby in just nine months. We can replace a mum in just fifteen to twenty years.

A mature tree can take a thousand years to replace. And longer, if we care to replace the supported ecosystem.

The sadder truth is, once a tree has been replaced by concrete, that natural environment will never -- never -- be restored.
