Fiona's might was proof that even healthy trees can become an urban hazard when extreme weather unexpectedly topples them onto power lines, vehicles and roads. FileTRURO, N.S. — Sometimes when talking with young students, I like to ask them if trees live forever. Many kids think they do. Maybe some adults do too, since trees may appear to be living in one spot seemingly unchanging for many decades.
Many people naturally form strong personal attachments to trees and want to protect them. These feelings may arise from a sentimental attachment, such as a tree planted by, or for, a relative. It may be deemed special due to the homeowner valuing the many benefits provided by trees, such as environmental and aesthetic, or simply because it has always been there.
The cost of urban tree work is significantly higher than most people realize. It is not the same as going out to the back-40 to fall a few trees for firewood. Arboriculture is a specialized field which is not at all comparable to commercial logging practices. Urban forestry work requires specialized training, knowledge, equipment, techniques, and considerations not typically utilized in conventional forestry operations.
