No - that is wrong!!! They do it because it is cheaper and easier for them! Please - if you are buying or looking to build in an established neighborhood, please tell the builders you want mature trees on your property! My neighbors have had to get in front of bulldozers to stop them! We've gotten the County involved too and have managed to save some trees, but we need owner / buyer demand to builders! [/quote]

+1 lazy builders want to clear all the land so they can drive around on it easily and they also want to sell the the lumber. Also it's such BS to claim that a mature tree "will have to come down in 5-10 years." These trees are 150-250 years old. They aren't likely to die in the next few years. [/quote]

The builders prey on the uneducated.  Come to think of it, some pushy neighbors prey on the uneducated, too.  Anything to get their way.[/quote]
