Who’s replacing the cut trees?

April 29, 2024 7:16 am • Last Updated: April 29, 2024 7:16 am

I understand that the Connecticut Forestry Division Service is investigating the environmental impact of the 180 trees cut down behind the governor’s home in Greenwich. What about the tens of thousands of trees we are butchering along our roadways? Who authorized that? And where are we planting the new trees to replace them? Think about the habitat that’s lost.
