會員們:

 

附上的是不久以前在國內唯一的園林報紙， “中國花卉報” 裡面刋出的有關工地樹木保護的報導。  本會非常感謝 “中國花卉報” 能夠騰出空間，去讓全國讀者能夠分享到工地保護樹木的國際信息。

 

在現今的大中華地區裡，樹木在發展項目當中，往往成為了無辜的犠牲者。  發展商普遍感覺如果項目裡有大樹老樹存在，是一件非常討厭的事。  發展商一邊希望降低成本，另一邊又怕隨便殺樹會觸怒民眾，通常唯有借用以下兩種手法來解決問題：

 

  1. 1.  砍樹是合法的，已有所謂 “專業人仕” 的評審和通過當地政府的相關政策 (“樹木辦”?)， 和已作出合理的 “責任承擔” ， 可以昂步濶首的來向其進行 (香港和大陸？) 。

 

  1. 2.  把大樹老樹搬家，是搬不是殺嘛， 搬後死掉是此樹苦命，與人無悠 (台灣？) 。

 

講來講去，人是不可能會錯， 要錯的都是其他； 樹木完蛋是大自然不配合而矣 .....

 

如果樹木也能站在法院裡面去打官司，又如果當地的法律是真正公正廉明的，樹木的一方不一定會就此輸掉，坐以待斃。  在庭上，樹木可以問發展商，你憑甚麼國際標準來砍我搬我，有否通過公開討論和同意？  你的工序符合國際做法嗎？  你的評估是誰做，又符合甚麼國際標準呢？  如果搬樹失敗，你會承擔甚麼符合國際做法的後果呢？

 

種好一棵大樹老樹可能要上百年，要把它砍掉可能是幾個小時的事。  當領導們拼命去追求 GDP 和超英趕美之時，有沒有想過能留給子孫後代的滔天樹木還能剩下多少？ 

 

還是這個不重要呢？ 

 

謹此致意!

会员们:

 

附上的是不久以前在国内唯一的园林报纸， “中国花卉报” 里面刋出的有关工地树木保护的报导。  本会非常感谢 “中国花卉报” 能够腾出空间，去让全国读者能够分享到工地保护树木的国际信息。

 

在现今的大中华地区里，树木在发展项目当中，往往成为了无辜的犠牲者。  发展商普遍感觉如果项目里有大树老树存在， 是一件非常讨厌的事。  发展商一边希望降低成本，另一边又怕随便杀树会触怒民众，通常唯有借用以下两种手法来解决问题：

 

1. 砍树是合法的，已有所谓 “专业人仕” 的评审和通过当地政府的相关政策 (“树木办”?)，和已作出合理的 “责任承担” ， 可以昂步濶首的来向其进行 (香港和大陆？) 。

 

2. 把大树老树搬家，是搬不是杀嘛，搬後死掉是此树苦命，与人无悠 (台湾？) 。

 

讲来讲去，人是不可能会错，要错的都是其他；树木完蛋是大自然不配合而矣 ......

 

如果树木也能站在法院里面去打官司，又如果当地的法律是真正公正廉明的，树木的一方不一定会就此输掉，坐以待毙。  在庭上，树木可以问发展商，你凭甚麽国际标準来砍我搬我，有否通过公开讨论和同意？  你的工序符合国际做法吗？  你的评估是谁做，又符合甚麽国际标準呢？  如果搬树失败，你会承担甚麽符合国际做法的後果呢？

 

种好一棵大树老树可能要上百年，要把它砍掉可能是几个小时的事。  当领导们拼命去追求 GDP 和超英赶美之时， 有没有想过能留给子孙後代的滔天树木还能剩下多少？ 

 

还是这个不重要呢？

Dear Station Members,

 

Attached is a recent article published in Mandarin on “Tree Protection in Construction” by CAA in the only gardening & landscape newspaper in China, the China Gardening News (CGN) .  This article would be read by the millions, as CGN is a “Party Newspaper” in China, to reach every Landscape Bureau & Govt Dept dealing with trees.  CAA is very grateful to CGN for giving us such a wonderful opportunity to share our knowledge with our China brothers & sisters, as so in the past 20 years already.  This is making CAA very well known in the China proper.

 

By western standards, tree protection in construction in the China Region at large can be regarded as a sad joke.  Trees are mutilated at will, dried up by mistake, mechanically damaged out of convenience, & transplanted with topped crown & miniaturized rootballs to save cost.  If the tree would die afterwards, it is plain bad luck, & can be hardly ever the mistake of the developer or handler.

 

As the China Region is entering a development spree at present, catching up with GDP & upgrading city image, are far more important than protecting trees in any way.  Money is better spent to build more shinny structures, & hard surfaces are preferred for ease of maintenance.  Then what would that leave in the years to come to show our grandchildren?  Not a lot of people would care for that at present.

 

CAA is paying our efforts to tell the public in our territory that mature trees take years to grow, & they have many benefits.  They cannot be easily replaced, & cannot be manufactured.  Money & GDP can’t buy big trees.  Transplanting old trees is expensive if done properly, & is usually not the best option.

 

There are indeed far too many “professionals” of various disciplines happy to justify the removal of mature trees in the China Region right at this moment.  Many are well educated too.  Money spins the world around in our territory.

 

CAA are honest Arborists, & we speak the facts & truth.  It may not be pleasing, but good Arborists should not lose our Professionalism by money.  We are here to protect our valuable trees, & we insist on international practices.

 

May more would follow our course in our territory in time.

 

best regards,

 

Sammy Au
