If you've recently had one cut down in your yard, were you left with a stump that's getting in the way of your landscaping plans?

Safety: Getting a stump out of the ground can be extremely dangerous for an inexperienced person. For example, even if you're experienced with towing vehicles with your truck, you may run into difficulties iff you attach a chain to the stump and try to yank it out.

As corpses permeate the graveyard, the ability sustain life itself comes into question; Olds warps the significance of the tree to argue that life is no longer sustainable. Due to the lack of enough wood for coffins, the disposal of corpses exemplify desperation and require inhumane treatment. The sheer number of corpses necessitates that many are “Bound with rope like the tree's ball of roots / When it waits to be planted”(7-8). Literally converting poisonous carbon dioxide into oxygen, a tree preserves life on earth. Ironically, as the
The question arose about the cost benefits of treating the tree versus cutting them down. It cost approximately $43.00 to treat one tree versus the $400.00 to cut the tree down, grind the stump away, and plant a new tree in its place. Even though many Ash trees have been saved by this treatment, it was too late for some. So far 10,500 Ash trees have been cut down in the city of Fort Wayne because they were attacked by the Ash Borer. This year another 2,447 will be cut down also. Mudrack Tree Experts have
One of Billy's biggest conflicts is when his dogs tree a coon in a very large tree. Bill knows this tree as “the big tree”, the one that is impossible to climb let alone cut down. As said on pg 78 of Where The Red Fern Grows, “I know he’s there,” I said, “but there’s nothing I can do. I can’t climb it. Why it's sixty feet up to the first limb and it would take me a month to cut it down.”(Rawls) Billy struggles with being able to climb the tree because he feels that he will not be able to because it is so high up. Also, he knows that it would be super hard to cut the tree down. Though he struggles he pulls through and is determined to get the coon. “Gritting my teeth...I don’t care how big you are, I’m not going to let my dogs down...I’m going to cut you down. I don’t care if it takes me a whole year.”(Rawls 78) Billy knows that it is going to be a hard task, but he is determined to cut the tree down

There are several soil results might happen after the tree removal in this case, from limited influence to significant damage. As this case just mentioned the site soil classification of this reclaimed land is H1 but not mention the soil type. If it's sandy area, removal trees might cause less damage to the soil because sand does not swell or shrink with changes in moisture (Victorian building authority, 2015). However, if these trees are used to take more moisture from the underground water system in clay soil land, the tree removal land will become more wet or dry due to the different surrounding agricultural situation. For example, if there are heavy rainy after the tree removal and there are no other trees or shrubs around the site, too much accumulated water will stay on the hole and change the clay soils to be more reactive. On the other hand, if there are other big trees and shrubs around the site, the extra moisture will be absorbed by these trees and the site soil is going to be dry. Thus, the classification of the soil will be changed and it lead to change the footing construction system as well. All in all, tree conditions should be considered before the removal and a more careful site filling and cleaning jobs should be

There are several documented stories of individuals chaining themselves to trees in an effort to prevent loggers from removing them. In past instances, they have also been the cause of huge damage regarding fuels management plans created by U.S. Forestry workers. One such incident occurred in Tucson, Arizona in the year 2000 resulting in the catastrophic Rodeo-Chediski Fire. In response to growing concerns over fire dangers within the region, U.S. Forestry employee Kate Klein and her staff had spent the prior three years formulating a plan to log and rehabilitate an area of 28,000 forested acres in an effort to control and lower the incidences of out of control wild fires that threatened nearby homes and lives. During the group’s study of the land they met with extreme opposition from the local communities adjacent to the targeted wooded acreage. Environmentalists contested the team’s findings, and finally took the U.S. Forestry Department to court in 1999. Effort to slow the implementation of the proposed plans that were created to actively reduce ground-litter fuels and mid-canopy ladder fuels (these fuels carry fire from ground level up to the tops of the trees) within congested areas of woodland. The lawsuit lasted approximately two years before multiple fires started in the area of interest. Twenty days after the
Look at all those tree stumps; it’s as if a giant cut down the trees. Wandering the Petrified Forest National Park, Arizona, I noticed the fallen trees were devoid of bark and branches and some appeared cut, with a chainsaw.
