It is easier to chop down trees in NZ now

The New Zealand Government is making it easier for people to chop and trim trees. The bill will be passed this week and allows any tree that is in the way of something to be chopped or trimmed. This will also reduce the power the local councils have. Previously people were allowed to cut down a tree if it was a health issue and they needed permission from the local council.

This is depressing for tree-huggers. But it is only a bill and is far from being a law so things can change.
