Rejected petition Plant more hedgerows and trees after ripping them out for new housing estates.
Ensure that any hedgerow or trees that are ripped up for new housing developments, are replaced and planted nearby.
Too many wildlife habitats are being ripped out and concreted over, soon there will be many species struggling to survive or extinct.
More details
Replacing the trees and hedgerows nearby means species can thrive, aswell as having new housing for the growing population.
Birds will have habitat to return to to build nests, along with other wildlife that relies on hedges and trees to reproduce and live.
