OWAIRAKA MT ALBERT WILL HAVE 345 MATURE TREES CHOPPED DOWN
Starting Monday 11 November Tupuna Maunga Authority will cull 345 trees from Owairaka Mt Albert. In March we felt the pain of losing 153 huge mature exotic trees, as well as memorial trees from our Mangere Maunga that people planted over the years. We were helpless to do anything to save the trees, and the birds lost their habitats. Just as some of us cried, the same thing is now happening for trees on Owairaka Mt Albert. In nine months TMA will have cut down almost 1000 mature healthy trees from four of Auckland's maunga. Fourteen maunga will lose such trees including One Tree Hill and Mt Eden.
There is a March on Mt Albert today, Sunday 10 Nov.
Individually we are one drop. Together we are an ocean.
