These are the descendants of warlords who killed someone a thousand years ago. They claimed the land. They want to keep it. Help them.

Put in some native oaks , it will speed natures progress toward temperate oceanic rainforest here before we cut it all down .Oak king , Ash Queen .

I see a lot of trees being literally choked to death by ivy and a lot which are already. What good does it planting a bunch of trees but then letting them be killed by overgrowth of ivy. If you have old growth on your property, keep them healthy and alive, don't let them be ruined by not keeping the ivy in check

Nephin has planted 5000 trees over 7 years... a good forester will plant 1000 trees a day. And having farmers receiving CAP payments with their sheep damaging our national parks - What is going on?

Plant trees, stop with the climate crap.
