Actually a piece of journalism in the daily mail that is not terribly written. Likely will end up as greenwash though as the goverment aren't big on enviroment. What would 3 billion trees be as an % increase in current numbers of UK trees?

Engineering solution for wall, being pushed over by tree.
Stere replied to benedmonds's topic in General chat
BTCV handbook for dry stone walling has pics of either gap in wall wooden rails or adapt wall round tree as tree grows. Like the archway idea. -
How about that ariens razor? I have a cheapish mountfield with a honda 160c engine doesn't like wet or very thick grass though, but very fuel efficient compared to the older mowers, also self drive is very weak & it blocks easily.

Digging / pulling out large rhododendrons?
Stere replied to TerryH's topic in Forestry and Woodland management
Cyanide Didn't get much regrowth from hand clearing, when I volunteered doing it, probaly less than 5% of area total. There seemed to be 2 distinct growth habits: the low 2-4ft stuff that formed dense "mats", then the large bushes/small tree stuff some was well over 20ft ,which was alot easier to get rid of than the mats as fewer large, spaced out stumps to uproot, instead of loads of smaller dense ones. Using a mattocks and a silky saws/bowsaws, job would of being alot faster and easier with mini digger and chainsaws. -
Why can't the spoil go back in the holes they dug it out of instead of behind dams? Probably it will cost alot more but surely a better system is possible if the regulations were in place?

For firewood I uses a makita lecky corded saw, a cable is a slight hassle but no fumes saves petrol, build quality is good its lasted yrs. Its cuts loads faster than say a MS181 as 2kW but obviously no where near a 550xp
