Context: The Forestry Commission estimate there are 3,800,000,000 trees in the UK.
8,000,000 is 0.2% of 3,800,000,000.
Tragic, and to think there are actually people going around waving British flags calling for an end to net-zero and further destruction of our islands
That should keep the wood burning stoves going for a while.
Dunno how bad it is but we’ve had a lot of trees around here felled because of elm disease
Doesn’t really mean anything on its own.
Jow many trees are there in total, how many new trees grow every year? Just saying 8 million were lost is worthless without context, we all know trees aren’t Immortal, so how many died each year in the last decade?
