Two 100 year old linden trees were felled today, due to weakening by a massive amount of urine that made them unsafe in a storm. Urine damages are a big problem for the urban trees, and men even urinate on the newly planted trees with the slow release watering bags. Disgusting behavior! These bags are handled by tree care specialists, it is just unacceptable to urinate on them.
We need to talk about how we interact with trees. Tomorrow we will get a slice of one of the newly felled trees, for documentation, so we can get close and see exactly how bad the bark is damaged by urine.
Ugh!
