Update: The City of Cph wrote me today, with an attached GPS map of his route. They knew exactly who, where and when. The contractor will be instructed in reminding operators: turning must be done on asphalt or with the salting off.
YES! #savetheurbantrees
I know: I might as well yell into my pillow. The indifference is staggering. #urbanplanning #kbhpol #dkpol #wherearethetrees #savetheurbantrees
Ægirsgade, Nørrebro. This was the position of the same sign in 2017. They moved it from the street into the tree pit.
I would say "send help", but we are past helping. #savetheurbantrees #dkpol ping Cph mayor @SophieHAndersen
The general state of the young street tree they decided to torment further on #NørrebrosRunddel. Notice the freshly broken off branch, previously blocking access and view of the poster? #kv21 #kbhpol #savetheurbantrees
*A canopy does not grow flat and fan-shaped.* The young tree is harmed by illegally placed campaign posters.
Monday: Alerting the politician. No reply.
Tuesday: Alerting the city. No action taken.
Sunday: Shaming the city and the politician.

Thankfully the majority of Cph city council voted to proceed with the preliminary work to hire a head gardener. Something we have been without for decades. In "green Copenhagen". #kbhpol #savetheurbantrees
The stress of knowing that 70 big and healthy trees are *this close* to being felled. Followed by the relief when you manage to put a halt to the plan, and at least save some of them. Rollercoaster go home. #savetheurbantrees
Since the #C40summit meeting in Copenhagen is a closed party, we rely on SoMe updates to learn about the topics. No sign as of yet of urban nature/trees? Is it even discussed? #savetheurbantrees #C40Cities cc @c40cities
Dear mayors of the world, welcome to Copenhagen. Please teach us the value of urban trees. #c40summit #Carlsbergbyen #urbanplanning #savetheurbantrees
Over the years *all* the mayors, from the Lord Mayor to mayors in charge of environment, have told me to "keep up the good work". All I want is to be able to say the same back. #savetheurbantrees #C40Summit
I am being stonewalled by the city. I thank them. Absolutely nothing fuels my fire more than being stonewalled. #savetheurbantrees
New Danish study: Children who grow up with greener surroundings have up to 55% less risk of developing various mental disorders later in life.

The urban deforestation in Copenhagen is ongoing. And plans to remove entire parks to build offices, are in the works. This is a dark age, for Copenhagen. Zero foresight. #savetheurbantrees
Earlier today, I read that a man who illegally felled an old tree, despite city's warning, was sentenced to two weeks in jail and a substantial fine (obviously not Copenhagen). The frequency of these news instills hope. #savetheurbantrees
I fear that by the time politicians and developers realize the importance of a healthy canopy cover and mature trees, it will be too late. The rest must be preserved at all costs! #savetheurbantrees
Another six big trees felled in Copenhagen today. Death by parking and traffic, at Ravelinen. #savetheurbantrees
"The trees show signs that we are not treating them well, let's cut all 131 down and start over". Amber alert on Islands Brygge. #savetheurbantrees savetheurbantrees.blogspot.dk/2018/03/amber-alert-on-i...
Department of destructive neatness suggests "improving pavement" on this leafy square. Keep in mind how it's done here... #savetheurbantrees
The fight to save Copenhagen street trees from salt, is working: city just announced three added green bike routes, spared. Good for trees, groundwater, dogs paws, bikes and pavement. #savetheurbantrees

The Municipality of Frederiksberg shines with animated video for citizens, about salt. Why and how to avoid it on the sidewalks. #savetheurbantrees

Next: citizens of Cph petition to make the city care for the old lake trees, and replace toxic salt with caliumformiat. #savetheurbantrees
The trees they wanted to replace (badly cut but alive at least) vs. what the wanted to replace it with. #WhyIfight #SaveTheUrbanTrees
If I see one more yard manager cheer for the chainsaw, to avoid the burden of sweeping up leaves in fall. I swear.. #savetheurbantrees
Today's loss of trees in Copenhagen. This time for a metro station. Why not move them? #mozartsplads #savetheurbantrees #cphgreen
