Have we all seen the absolute pile of steaming ordure served up by the Albert Eden Board?(below). I don't think I've ever read such hypocritical trash in all my life. How they can think planting 100 trees makes up for chopping down a thousand and how they can say that they're making things great for future generations when they're doing what they're trying to do to Chamberlain Park is completely beyond me!

  Future giants of Albert-Eden take root

A total of 104 big trees are being planted across parks and reserves in Albert-Eden this winter. They are mostly native species and will grow to become giants. The Albert-Eden Local Board is committed to protecting local open spaces, biodiversity and making sure that actions today benefit future generations.

“These trees and the sites were specifically chosen to ensure we have future giants growing in our city in 100 years’ time,” says Margi Watson, Parks Work Programme Lead for the Albert-Eden Local Board. "They won’t be affected by urban development and will be able to withstand all nature can throw at them. They are planted for our future generations to enjoy."

These trees are in addition to the many other trees, shrubs and plants being planted across the city’s parks over winter by council staff and volunteers.
