They call for regulations to protect the trees of cities
- In order to improve the quality of life and the most habitable cities, the Green Alliance has called for measures to prevent the logging of trees and their protection and maintenance, including the creation of a legal status for the tree.
In the face of the climate crisis and high temperatures this summer, the coordinator of the environmental party Alianza Verde, Juan López de Uralde, recalls that the trees are excellent allies to combat the heat: “People demand more and more greener cities to live better; it’s incomprehensible to see cases like the massive felling of trees in Marrutxipi in Donostia.”
In the proposal submitted to the Government of Spain, the party has put on the table measures to protect and maintain the city’s trees, including a legal status for the trees to be legislated as living beings and not as objects.
López de Uralde has highlighted the importance of trees in the quality of life of cities: “They help improve air quality, balance climate and water cycle, favor biodiversity, are useful to combat noise pollution, also to reduce temperature, and offer oxygen, food, shade, shelter. They are necessary and essential from an ecological point of view, but they are also closely linked to social and community life”.

Blood is needed to constantly renew and remember the value of trees! That is how we are. We'll have a huge forehead and a very broad liver ... Not to mention thickness of the skin.
