This Valentine’s Day, Speak to the trees… Write a letter to let them know you care

In 2018 approximately 70 UNE habitat trees were cut down and fed into the chipper before management announced a temporary halt in response to community concerns.

A further 398 trees are listed for removal in the near future, of which 125 are native species likely to include important habitat for campus wildlife such as koalas, sugar gliders, parrots and other birds.
